Path towards reducing environmental impact

The environmental effects of road traffic are impossible to ignore. Simeon trucks transport ADR products remarkably long distances every day. This is why we have purposefully developed our environmental policy in accordance with the requirements of the ISO 14001 standard already since 1998.

"Sustainable development is an increasingly important perspective in business these days. We are building a better future."

Max Stenberg

Controller, responsible for sustainable development

Carrying environmental responsibility is important and meaningful, and combined with economic and social responsibility, the effect is positive for the whole society.

Promoting sustainable development in road transportations

It is important to see sustainable development as a whole and adapt business accordingly. That’s why we weigh sustainability in big and small ways, from choosing office paper to choosing a vehicle. When choosing partners, we consider sustainable development important.

We take responsibility for our own contribution to the industry’s climate impact by changing our vehicle fleet to fossil-free. With the help of new and greener vehicles we can reduce emission components and minimize carbon dioxide emissions.

While we have managed to reduce fuel consumption, we have also managed to extend the lifetime of trucks with vehicle maintenance programs, and by monitoring and developing drivers’ driving habits.

Since 1998 our environmental policy has met the requirements of the ISO 14001 standard. It includes a life cycle strategy in which we consider the environmental impact of our vehicles and other resources from the beginning to the end. In general, we encourage the entire company to recycle, reduce waste, and prefer more sustainable purchasing options.

We have already done a lot but our journey is just beginning. We continue the development towards more environmentally intelligent transportations.
