Our external sales and technical team have officially hit the road in a brand-new fleet of all-electric Volvo EX40s, marking an exciting step forward in driving towards our sustainability goals.
Every journey made is now cleaner, quieter, and emissions-free, helping to significantly reduce PLASSON’s environmental impact. Over the course of a year, the switch to all-electric vehicles is expected to save around 40,000 kg of CO₂ emissions – that’s the equivalent of planting 2,000 trees!
“Innovation has always been part of who we are, and it doesn’t stop with our products,” said Simon Merckel, Managing Director at PLASSON UK. “Our team covers thousands of miles each year to support customers all across the UK, so switching to fully electric vehicles means we can do so more sustainably while maintaining the same high level of service.”
This investment follows the installation of EV chargers at our Burgess Hill office and warehouse last year. Combined with our existing solar panel array, these chargers provide 100% carbon-free power, enabling our new electric fleet to be charged using clean, renewable energy.
