Environmental work within BT
The BT trucks are produced at manufacturing sites where environmental issues
are in focus. Waste management and reduction of hazardous chemicals used in
production are natural parts of the everyday environmental work. We have been
ISO 14001 certified since 1997, and in our continuous environmental work we put
effort into reducing energy consumption on all levels, while we work with preven-
tive actions to reduce pollution risks and the risk of biological danger.
The paint systems used for BT trucks have been changed and there has been a dra-
matic reduction of solvent emissions by employing new paint-shop technology at
the production sites.
Not only the production, but also the environmental impact of the trucks is focused
on. The trucks' contents of substances of concern to the environment are analysed.
In this area, we are enforcing environmental demands on our suppliers.
Environmental care is not only limited to reduction of pollution from factories
and efficient use of raw materials, it also covers awareness of individual design-
ers when they choose components, materials and take part in decisions on new
production methods. Our products are developed without materials from the black
list*, while the grey list materials* are reduced to a minimum and we continuously
endeavour to completely eliminate them when possible.
For several trucks, environmental declarations are available. The declarations are
issued according to ISO 14001:2004. They provide information about the environ-
mental impact of the trucks during manufacturing, usage and scrapping.
* The ”black and grey” list was first defined by Volvo, and BT has adopted this definition with the approval of Volvo.
