Reduce Wastewater
We aim to Increase our water-use efficiency. Investments have been made in several countries in smart wastewater system for our wash bays, which reduces the water consumption quite considerably. Earlier this year, as part of The Manlift Way, we refined and improved our Aerial Work Platform (AWP) washing procedures. How do we do this?
Energy and Resource efficiency
We aim to increase our energy and resource efficiency through machine electrification, efficient transportation, carbon offsetting, and renewable energy usage. Many of our offices, depots and workshops have made the switch to LED lighting, using around 90% less power than a traditional light bulb and with a longer lifespan.
Recycle
We aim to responsibly manage our waste streams from waste separation, to decrease of single-use plastic to a paperless office. Various initiatives have been developed within Manlift for Increasing resource efficiency. In 2022, 73% of our waste was recycled and our goal is to have 90% of waste recycled by 2030. By gradually increasing the share of renewable and recycled raw materials and reducing the share of primary raw materials, Manlift wants to reduce the environmental impact caused by the use of raw materials and materials.
