Several cities have announced the establishment of "zero-emission zones" in inner cities. Think for example of Amsterdam, Breda, The Hague, Rotterdam, Leiden and Nijmegen. This means that as of January 1, 2025, only sustainable and completely zero-emission means of transport will be welcome in these areas. This calls for new facilities for sustainable logistics alternatives that contribute to the goal of 'Zero Emission City Logistics (ZES)'.
Kemeling Kunststoffen shows with its new product 'the Cargoboat' what is possible with technical plastic. Because the Cargoboat is produced from the flexible and sustainable material HDPE, and is 100% electrically powered, this product is a silent, sustainable and emission-free choice for city distribution.
Through this sustainable alternative, Kemeling ensures that materials, products and containers can be transported silently through the inner city. Of course, our Cargoboats can also be used for other purposes, such as transporting raw materials or waste products, or providing other distribution services.
In addition to transporting your materials or product efficiently and just-in-time, when you put the sustainable Cargoboat into operation you contribute to an emission-free, quiet, and better air quality of the inner city, and thus to the 'Zero Emission City Logistics Policy'. By reducing freight traffic, emissions and odour and noise pollution, the Cargoboat ensures a cleaner, more sustainable and more liveable city for the future!
Because Kemeling has over 40 years of experience in the technical plastics industry, we understand that each customer has specific needs. Therefore, our team and location are geared to provide flexible solutions for your project.
