Every day, we take care of the environment protection
Concerned about the impact of our activities on the environment, Van Mieghem Logistics has adopted a strategy on the emission standards of its vehicles.
In the past years, our company has been committed in the acquisition of the latest EURO emission vehicles.
This proactive policy enabled us to anticipate the application of a pollution standard which became compulsory in the E.U. in 2009 for all registered vehicles.
Thereby, our fleet is composed of 5% EURO 5 and 95% EURO 6.
We have implemented a monitoring and improvement program for fuel efficiency and consumption which applied to our entire fleet.
We also have 2 eco-combis which, together, carry the same amount of goods as 3 standard semi-trailers.
In addition, we do recycle all non-reusable pallets, packaging from all our production sites, waste oils and tyres.
When selling our vehicles, our maintenance department recycles the concentrated gas in the air conditioning of our vehicles.
When buying tyres, we pay particular attention to the standard of sound emission and consumption.
