We’re planting a tree for every truck we sell
A key element of our environmental strategy moving forward is our pledge to plant a tree for every truck we sell. To help us co-ordinate this activity we have partnered with Ground Control who will support us with the physical planting of trees throughout the UK.
Our ambition, our vision
Our overall ambition and vision is to contribute a significant amount of natural habitat and rewilding, ensuring adequate space for wildlife to flourish and communities to thrive. This campaign and our wider environmental commitments will guarantee that this ambition becomes a reality.
Briggs Group’s Managing Director, Pete Jones, commented on the significance of this scheme and the important role customers can play moving forward.
“The launch of our ‘plant a tree’ initiative in 2022 was significant in our industry and demonstrated how we are prepared to keep going the extra mile in terms of our environmental commitment. As part of our carbon strategy, this initiative goes above and beyond the work being undertaken across our own operations and will enable us to make a significant annual contribution to the UK environment.
“We’re extremely excited about involving our customers in our sustainability journey and by investing in our equipment they are having a direct and positive impact on the environment. We will continue to work closely with our customers to help identify areas in which we can contribute towards their own environmental goals and objectives.”
This initiative includes all new equipment sales from across the main Briggs Group product ranges, including but not limited to, Forklifts, Access Equipment, Cleaning Machines, Big Trucks and Rough Terrain Machines.
