"WE ARE CARBON NEUTRAL HERE": PAVING THE WAY FOR AN EVER-MORE SUSTAINABLE FUTURE

Confirming its strong commitment to new and sustainable practices in the transport industry, FPT Industrial is proudly attending EIMA with a carbon-neutral booth, like with all the global events it has exhibited at in 2024. This ambitious result involves every step of the booth production and requires a Life Cycle Assessment (LCA). First of all, the booth is built using modular and reusable structures with eco-friendly materials and furnishings. During the event, everything is optimized, from transport of materials to use of recyclable equipment. At the end of the trade show, when reusable parts are dismantled and recovered, transport is optimized once again, and the recycled and non-reusable materials are handled correctly. Then, after a final assessment of the total impacts, FPT Industrial offsets the residual emissions by purchasing certified carbon credits in order to achieve the target of carbon neutrality.
