Sustainability & environment
Sustainability - an integral part of Skanol's business strategy
Sustainability is an integral part of Skanol's business strategy. As a transport company specialising in dangerous goods, we take responsibility for minimising our impact on the environment and climate - while ensuring high safety and operational efficiency.
One of the key elements of our environmental efforts is the investment in weight-optimised tankers. These purpose-built vehicles allow for increased payload and fewer kilometres driven, reducing fuel consumption and CO₂ emissions per delivery.
We have implemented a number of technologies that support greener and more responsible driving, including:
- ECO-driving and electronic driving style tracking
- GPS tracking and fleet management to optimise routes and avoid unnecessary driving
Our distribution models are also designed with sustainability in mind. Through multishare distribution, we can deliver products for multiple customers on the same vehicle. This means fewer trips, lower costs, higher efficiency - and a significant reduction in environmental impact, especially in sparsely populated areas
