New Carbon Fibre Home Delivery Fleet to Drive Down Road Miles and Emissions
2020-08-25
British engineering firm Penso has delivered its first Blue Ocean Home Delivery Pods into service, with launch customer & Cold Chain Federation member Asda taking an initial order for 25 units.Manufactured from a unique blend of carbon fibre and recycled plastic, the triple-compartment ultra-lightweight pods can transport approximately the same weight of goods in two journeys, that a traditional vehicle carries in three – drastically reducing road miles, fuel costs and cutting CO2 and NOx emissions. It also means more drops can be completed per load, helping to meet increased customer demand.
