With a fleet of 200 vehicles, over 95% of which are Euro 6 trucks, Carbox has launched a pilot project for the use of Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO), with the aim of reducing emissions and improving the overall efficiency of road transport.<\/p>\n
\u201cWith the introduction of HVO and the digitalisation of operational processes, Carbox reaffirms its commitment to sustainable innovation,\u201d said Silvano Maggi, managing director, Carbox.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe goal is to offer transport solutions that are increasingly efficient, responsible and competitive, in line with European sustainability standards and the expectations of the international market.\u201d<\/p>\n
Project success<\/strong><\/p>\n The project, started in 2023 and developed through multiple phases, has confirmed the full interoperability of HVO with next-generation diesel engines, allowing vehicles to be refueled alternately with HVO or conventional diesel without any mechanical modifications or extraordinary maintenance.<\/p>\n Tests have also demonstrated equivalent fuel performance in terms of consumption, with emission reductions of up to 90% compared to traditional fossil fuels.<\/p>\n Thanks to the growing availability of HVO along major international routes, Carbox said it has been able to implement the project on a scalable basis, ensuring operational continuity and economic sustainability.<\/p>\n By the end of Q3 2025, HVO accounted for 30% of Carbox\u2019s total fuel consumption – a tangible result of a concrete and ambitious commitment that is already producing measurable impacts across the road transport business.<\/p>\n The initiative is part of the Tarros Group\u2019s broader ESG strategy, aimed at building a sustainable intermodal model integrating maritime and road transport, in line with European decarbonisation directives for the logistics sector.<\/p>\n In parallel with its energy transition journey, Carbox has launched major digitalisation projects aimed at enhancing processes\u2019 efficiency and transparency.<\/p>\n Among the most significant initiatives include digital management of the way-bill, which has drastically reduced paper usage and simplified document traceability.<\/p>\n It has also developed a digital operating platform that connects drivers, port terminals, depots and logistics partners in real time, improving load planning and timing accuracy.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Carbox, the Tarros Group company specialised in road transport with operations in Italy, Egypt and Morocco, is strengthening its commitment to sustainable and digitally integrated logistics across the Med.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":5850,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[7,22],"tags":[40,2359,26,968,2360],"sponsor":[],"class_list":["post-5849","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-alternative-fuels-greenport","category-products-services-greenport","tag-alternative-fuels","tag-bio-fuels","tag-hvo","tag-road-transport","tag-sustainable-logistics"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5849","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=5849"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5849\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":5851,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/5849\/revisions\/5851"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/5850"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=5849"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=5849"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=5849"},{"taxonomy":"sponsor","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.portstrategy.com\/greenport\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/sponsor?post=5849"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
