Bona, the Malmö, Sweden-based company that supplies product for installing, renovating, maintaining, and restoring floors, recently hosted an event to welcome its first electric truck to its facility in Limburg, Germany. The Scania innovated truck is from the Scania P series and will offer an emission-free transport system for Bona’s operations in Limburg and the surrounding area. It is the first of its kind to be operated in Germany.
"Bona is committed to incorporating and pursuing sustainable products, systems, and practices throughout the company and the new Scania electric truck is an important milestone in our journey to a greener future,” said Dr. Thomas Brokamp, managing director, Bona Germany.
The battery-electric truck will act as a city shuttle, making multiple trips a day to transport finished products from the production plant in the south of the city to the distribution center in the north, just under six kilometers away. Approximately 21 euro pallets can be accommodated in the loading area on each tour.
