Across Europe, the logistics industry has undergone a major transformation.
Considering that around 90% of freight transport is carried out by road<\/strong>, the new goal is clear: to reduce CO\u2082 emissions<\/strong> through innovative models<\/strong> that make the entire sector more efficient and sustainable.<\/p>\n

\n

Reducing Environmental Impact Is a Responsibility<\/strong><\/h3>\n

BRIDGE<\/strong> aligns itself with this vision, implementing a precise match between transport demand and supply<\/strong> to partially or completely eliminate empty trips<\/strong>.
This creates a new perspective for freight transport<\/strong>, one that aims to deliver to future generations a world where eco-sustainability is deeply rooted<\/strong> in every industry \u2014 a goal that lies at the very heart of BRIDGE\u2019s mission.<\/p>\n

However, the recent economic crisis has led many transport companies to make choices not aligned with modern sustainability standards<\/strong>.
Many old, polluting, and less safe vehicles<\/strong> are still on the road.
To illustrate:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n

    The average age<\/strong> of light trucks (<3.5t) in Italy is 9 years and 4 months<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    For heavy trucks (>3.5t) it\u2019s 19 years and 7 months<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    73%<\/strong> of light trucks and 45%<\/strong> of heavy trucks are over 10 years old<\/strong>,<\/p>\n<\/li>\n

  • \n

    Special-purpose vehicles average 9 years and 6 months<\/strong> (<3.5t) and 13 years and 7 months<\/strong> (>3.5t).<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    These alarming figures highlight the need for an innovative and sustainable push<\/strong> \u2014 one that BRIDGE<\/strong> is committed to providing.<\/p>\n

    If it\u2019s true that a fully loaded truck emits about 30% more CO\u2082<\/strong> than an empty one, the real solution lies in eliminating empty runs<\/strong> altogether.
    By doing so, it becomes possible to reduce the total number of transport vehicles<\/strong> circulating within the European Union \u2014 and therefore the sector\u2019s overall emissions.<\/p>\n

    \n

    BRIDGE<\/strong> represents a forward-looking vision<\/strong> for the future of transport \u2014 enabling carriers<\/strong> and shippers<\/strong> to meet their respective needs efficiently, increasing revenues<\/strong> for the former and reducing costs<\/strong> for the latter, all while maintaining a strong focus on environmental impact<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
