As part of our commitment to sustainability, our Droitwich distribution center is currently undergoing a 12-month trial of HVO (Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil) fuel for our fleet and equipment. HVO fuel serves as a fossil-free substitute for diesel, derived from organic waste or residues like vegetable oils and fats.
HVO is similar to diesel in its chemical composition, which means that HVO acts as a seamless replacement, requiring no modifications to our vehicles or equipment. This shift to fossil-free fuel is poised to dramatically reduce our carbon footprint, slashing greenhouse gas emissions by an estimated 90%. This trial further emphasises Bowker’s commitment to striving to a more sustainable logistics sector, as we continue to be at the forefront of change.
