Spesialis filtrasi Mann+Hummel dan perusahaan daur ulang dan jasa lingkungan Alba Group memperluas kemitraan mereka untuk mengatasi emisi kendaraan.

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.

Kemitraan ini berhasil dan sekarang perusahaan berencana untuk menambah lebih banyak armada Alba dengan roof box PureAir.

Desain roof box sangat cocok untuk truk dan lori karena umumnya beroperasi pada kecepatan rendah di lingkungan dengan konsentrasi partikulat tinggi di udara sekitar. Mann+Hummel mengatakan ini adalah kondisi performa ideal untuk roof box, yang berarti produk ini dapat mengurangi emisi kendaraan secara signifikan.

“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.
