Carbon free trucks set to give the environment a lift
Carrylift is the first and only forklift truck company in the UK to commit to locking up the lifetime C02 emissions from all of its new Nissan LPG trucks by creating more than 100 acres of new woodland in the UK.
How it works:
- Carrylift’s LPG trucks are more environmentally friendly because they are fuelled by a low carbon emitting hydrocarbon gas, which reduces harmful emissions by 99%. What residual emissions remain are being locked up through tree planting for the life-time of the trucks.
- A minimum of 105 acres, which is equivalent to 60 football pitches of carbon absorbing trees, will be planted in some of the UK’s leading woodland conservation charity’s 1,000 UK woods. All the woods have free public access and are protected and managed for future generations to enjoy and explore.
- In total these trees will lock up and store more than 3,400 tonnes of CO2 each year, which would otherwise pollute the atmosphere and contribute towards global warming.
Steven Routledge, Carrylift Group Sales Director said: “We are extremely proud that we have taken this great step forward with the Woodland Carbon Scheme.
"It is important for companies like Carrylift to reduce their carbon footprint and help protect the environment. It is part of a long-term commitment to reduce the impact on global warming and protect future generations.
“The Woodland Carbon scheme has given Carrylift a competitive advantage within the marketplace and the uniqueness of the carbon capture element of our product has already brought in new business via a large scale order."
