Ocean Network Express (ONE) is now offering its customers in France the opportunity to transport their cargo using biofuel-powered trucks in cooperation with logistics firm Transmanut.
Thierry Le Moal, Head of Operations for ONE France commented, “We are excited to be working with Transmanut, a longstanding trusted inland haulage vendor to offer this new green inland option to our customers in France. ONE is always looking for innovative ways to reduce CO2 emissions and find sustainable solutions to lower our impact on the environment. We thank Transmanut for helping us to make greener journeys.”
The trucks will utilise Oleo100 fuel, which is made from 100% French rapeseed residue and provides a 60% reduction in CO2 emissions.
Additionally, Transmanut is one of the main suppliers for ONE’s road services in France, and they offer dedicated drivers for all of ONE’s cargo deliveries.
Dominique Berthauld, CEO of Transmanut said “Six years ago, Transmanut decided to invest in the first biofuel trucks in the French market using Oleo100 fuel. 600,000 Kms later and with a positive return experience, we have the ambition to develop our biofuel fleet in the container sector and have acquired two new trucks this month. We are pleased to be deploying these trucks into service, helping ONE’s customers to significantly reduce CO2 emissions. Further biofuel trucks will be delivered by the end this year to reinforce our green fleet.”
