During a formal ceremony held in the Environment Division of the Regional Government of Madrid, UNO has received the “Clean Environment 2012” award for Organizations. UNO is the Spanish Organization of employers and companies of the Logistics & Transportation business. This prize is part of a global approach from the regional government to enhance local industries’ engagement with clean initiatives and technologies. This year’s prize acknowledges the project of the development of an electric tricycle for Last Mile Delivery in urban environments. This project was strongly supported by leading companies in urban logistics, such as SEUR, MRW, TNT or DHL Supply Chain who have offered their know-how in daily business operation in this area. Vienenbici worked as the investor in the project, KeelWit Technology as the engineering company taking full responsibility of the design, sizing and production scheme, and e+e as an energy efficiency expert. Project coordination has been granted by CITET (Technological Centre for Innovation applied to Logistics and Transportation). This project ended with the only fully homologated electric tricycle in Spain with substantial improvements in terms of handling, comfort, volume, torque and range for package delivery in pedestrian areas and crowded streets. UNO can therefore display the “sello-e” distinction as a proof of its efforts in making logistic industry more efficient and environmentally aware and as a sign of their search for excellence in its management.
