.cls-1 { fill: #e26ca9 } Tamro collaborates with LBC Frakt for greener transports October 21, 2021 For many years, the pharmaceutical distributor Tamro has had a clear focus on the environment and how a distributor can reduce its environmental impact. Earlier this year, we told about the test of Volvo Trucks' electric truck for the inner city environment and now we are taking another step in a collaboration with LBC Frakt. At the beginning of October, together with LBC Frakt, we started the first step towards more environmentally friendly pharmacy transports. This means that we now use what is called "diesel with a 70 percent reduction". This type of fuel produces about 0.98 kilos of CO2 emissions per liter. - This would reduce our carbon dioxide emissions by 6 tonnes per month or 72 tonnes per year! This roughly corresponds to the emissions from 25 passenger cars / year, says Andreas Olausson, Transport Manager at Tamro. The cars that now run on this type of diesel are all cars that run as distribution cars with deliveries to all pharmacies in Värmland based on LBC's central in Karlstad. Next step In November, we will take another step together with LBC and will then also start delivering with a gas car that runs on biogas. This in turn will result in an additional 103 tonnes / year in reduced emissions. - Driving on biogas gives about 0.27 kilos of emissions per liter, compared to 2.69 kilos per liter if you drive on regular diesel. When everything is done, together with LBC Frakt, we have reduced emissions corresponding to 60 passenger cars / year, says Andreas Olausson.
