The sustainability of our product deliveries
What kind of activities we do for minimizing Konecranes product deliveries’ environmental impact?
At Konecranes, we are committed to environmental responsibility and always strive to minimize the environmental impact of our operations and products.
Crane’s lifecycle phase: Distribution
Transport uses most of the world's fossil fuel. This creates air pollution and is the main cause of global warming through carbon dioxide emissions. As we strive to minimize the environmental impact of our products at Konecranes, we optimize our transport methods and routes and minimize packaging to reduce the overall fuel consumption and volume of emissions between our factory and your site.
Decarbonizing product deliveries
Example of actions
The structural design of our new crane allows the main girder to be transported in two pieces with just one truck, thus reducing emissions. We also make every effort to utilize reusable and recyclable materials in packaging.
