Here we refer to heavier transport for large volumes of goods between purchasing centres and sales outlets for example.
European pollutant emission standards can be defined as the set of requirements that regulate the acceptable limits for internal combustion gas emissions from new vehicles sold in the EU Member States.
They are defined in a series of progressively implemented directives that are becoming increasingly restrictive, hence the increasing number of different standards (Euro 4, Euro 5, Euro 6...).
At present, EURO VI applies to heavy-duty vehicles and EURO 6 to passenger cars, with different emission limits for petrol and diesel vehicles.
We require in this metric that 80% of the company's transport is at least EURO 5, although the most current version is EURO 6, which in turn has evolved with various temporary regulations (Euro 6c, Euro 6d, Euro 6d-TEMP EVAP-ISC...)
We will "assign a" "YES" "to this question if:
- The company declares in some of its reports that it includes vehicles under the Euro VI standard although it does not specify in what proportion.
Or:
- The company declares in some of its reports that it has specific objectives of including vehicles under the Euro VI standard with an established deadline.
We will assign a "NO" if:
- The company does not publish any statement in this regard.
This information can be found in any of the following reports published on the companies' website:
- Annual memory
- Corporate Social Responsibility Report
- Sustainability Report
- Environmental Report
- Report on Carbon Footprint
- Non-Financial Information Statement (EINF)
