Briggs is proud to have taken their longstanding partnership above and beyond with Kingspan, a global leader in advanced insulation and building envelope solutions, by delivering a fleet of Hydrotreated Vegetable Oil (HVO) powered equipment.
With a mission to accelerate a net zero emissions future, Kingspan required a solution for their wide range of equipment, made up of more than 100 machines including forklifts, tow tractors, sideloaders, and cleaning equipment, across multiple sites. The goal was not only to lower emissions but to do so in a way that would align with Kingspan’s sustainability and ESG goals, while maintaining the same high levels of productivity and performance.
Introducing The Total Cost Of Ownership Calculator
To help Kingspan achieve this goal, Briggs used the specially designed Total Cost of Ownership Calculator. This tool enables businesses to assess both the commercial and environmental impact of different types of equipment, factoring in various power sources. Whether using traditional fuel options or renewable alternatives, the calculator provides insights into the total cost of ownership and the carbon savings associated with each option.
Briggs worked closely with Kingspan to explore all possible alternatives. Various solutions were considered, and after thorough analysis, it became clear that one option stood out. By switching to HVO, Kingspan has been able to reduce carbon emissions, while maintaining the operational efficiency needed to keep production running smoothly.
Working Towards A Better Future
We’re committed to listening to our customer’s needs, and tailoring the solution so informed decisions can be made to support businesses. By being at the forefront of innovation with the Total Cost of Ownership Calculator Tool, and alternative fuels like HVO, we’re proud to help businesses like Kingspan achieve their ESG goals.
Nigel Roberts, Transport Manager at Kingspan, said:
“It’s great to be partnered with Briggs Equipment, a business that is aligned with our main goals, such as ESG, which is a topic that heavily directs our decision-making here at Kingspan. The Total Cost of Ownership Calculator was a game changer for us, we had never previously considered HVO as a power source for our machines, but the calculator proved that this would be the best solution for Kingspan to help improve site efficiency while lowering our emissions. What sets Briggs apart from other suppliers is their level of service and support, I know that even once the deal is done, the commitment and aftercare we receive is second to none.”
Nick Marsden, Sales Director, Regional & Key, commented:
“Our Total Cost of Ownership Calculator is an amazing piece of kit, providing solutions our customers had never previously considered. This new tool is revolutionary and excels us at keeping business moving for our valued customers.”
