Though there are many feasible alternatives for short- distance mobility, like electric vehicles, the options are restricted when it’s about heavy-duty long-haul transportation. LNG is the best immediate alternative for long- distance transportation and can help transition to green trucking. Today, several industries have transformed their traditional logistics into more sustainable processes. Still, the evolution involves collaboration among companies to create a green logistics ecosystem for the well-being of the planet.
Essar’s GreenLine Strategic Partnership with Merino Laminates GreenLine Mobility Solutions Ltd, a key player in Essar’s Green Mobility initiative, recently entered into a partnership with Merino Laminates, a global leader in decorative surfacing solutions. The latter had made a significant move by adopting GreenLine’s LNG-powered logistics fleet. Being the first building materials company in India to take this step, Merino Laminates, through this collaboration, has shown its commitment to sustainability and reducing Scope 3 emissions across its supply chain. According to Anand Mimani, CEO of GreenLine Logistics Solutions, the collaboration with Merino Industries marks a significant milestone, being the first of its kind in the laminate industry. By introducing LNG-powered trucks into their logistics operations, the company not only minimizes emissions but also paves the way for sustainable practices to be adopted more widely across different industries.
