This new truck runs on biofuel
These new trucks in our fleet operates on biofuel. By choosing biofuel, we reduce our environmental impact and take a step forward in our commitment to lowering our climate footprint.
This initiative is part of our ongoing efforts to innovate in eco-friendly transportation, demonstrating our dedication to sustainability and responsible logistics.
Environment and climate change
Over recent years, we have reduced our CO₂e footprint in regards to Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, and we will set new goals for how we can move forward. We prioritise the efficient use of energy and incorporate environmental considerations into every decision, aiming to protect and preserve our planet for future generations.. We are very keen to collaborate with our customers to reduce both their and our emissions.
As a company that strives to reduce the climate impact of our operations, we measure our own carbon footprint and support our customers’ environmental ambitions by allowing our customers to see their CO₂e emissions per shipment free of charge.
Strategy on environment and climate change
Our strategy on environment and climate change is rooted in minimizing our environmental footprint and fostering a supply chain with less negative environmental impact. Through the installation of solar panels on our headquarters and many logistic facilities, and the shift towards lithium battery forklifts at one of our facilities in Denmark, we are trying to move the needle in the right direction.
LEMAN leads as Norway’s first 3PL supplier to harness solar energy
Embracing our commitment to sustainability, LEMAN has proudly become the first commercial 3PL provider in Norway to integrate solar energy. Spanning 8,000 square meters, our Vestby warehouse is now equipped with state-of-the-art solar cell panels. Annually, these panels generate roughly 1,160,000 kWh of green energy, fulfilling nearly 60 percent of the facility’s energy needs and marking a significant step towards our goal of a greener future.
At LEMAN, we prioritize working collaboratively with our customers to minimize our environmental impact.

Lithium-ION chargers contribute to charging systems
At LEMAN’s warehouse in Taulov, we use Lithium-ION batteries in our chargers and work towards replacing all fork-lifts with Lithium ION-powered models.
This is a step towards a supply chain with less environmental impact and we plan to expand the model to other areas of the LEMAN organisations over the next couple of years.
“In our journey to decrease emissions, LEMAN is cautiously exploring a range of solutions. We acknowledge the complexity of this challenge and are committed to learning and adapting our strategies to make meaningful progress.”
