Rail service reduces emissions by 82%


The logistic specialist Woodland has initiated a new rail route for Ball. The project enabled the can-maker to benefit from an 82% reduction of emissions between March 2021 and September 2022 by its inbound supply chain to the UK via the main deep-sea ports.

 

With the new transport solution, Ball was able to reduce its inland carbon footprint by 886 t of carbon in 1,442 feu, or 4.35 times less than if all the containers travelled by road. The project also meant the freight trucking system ran more efficiently, resulting in less demurrage penalties for the late collection of containers and goods compared to the previous year, Woodland said.
