Filtreringsspecialist Mann+Hummel og genbrugs- og miljøservicevirksomheden Alba Group udvider deres partnerskab for at tackle emissioner fra køretøjer.

The two companies launched a pilot project at the start of 2020 in Singapore, fitting Alba Group’s recycling trucks with PureAir fine dust particle filter roof boxes from Mann+Hummel.

Samarbejdet var vellykket, og nu planlægger virksomhederne at udstyre flere af Alba-flåden med PureAir-tagbokse.

Tagboksdesignet er velegnet til lastbiler og lastbiler, fordi de generelt kører ved lavere hastigheder i miljøer, hvor der er en høj koncentration af partikler i den omgivende luft. Mann+Hummel siger, at dette er de ideelle ydeevneforhold for tagboksen, hvilket betyder, at disse produkter kan reducere emissionerne fra disse køretøjer betydeligt.

“Although electric vehicles are becoming increasingly prevalent worldwide, particulate emissions are still a major problem, especially in cities,” said Franck Bento, director of sales for New Products at Mann+Hummel. “Our technology can make a real difference in tackling this problem, so we’re excited to continue our partnership with the Alba Group and help them install more of our roof boxes in the near future.”

“We’re always looking for ways to reduce our environmental footprint and the PureAir fine dust particle filters provide a really effective way of reducing the particulate pollution generated by our trucks on their rounds,” said Thomas Mattscherodt, head of the Project Management Office at Alba W&H Smart City Pte Ltd in Singapore.
