This investment marks another milestone in our ongoing commitment to combining sustainability and technological innovation within intermodal container transport. <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A new sustainable boost<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">As a specialist in intermodal transport,seamlessly combining truck, rail and inland waterway modalities, CTV has long worked to minimise CO\u2082 emissions per transport order. We strive to keep the distance over-the-road as short as possible. The new Volvo FM Electric trucks, fully branded in our corporate style, will be used specifically for zero-emission container transport during the so-called \u2018last mile\u2019. By integrating these electric trucks into our intermodal network, we strengthen our sustainable transport offering.   <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cFor us, these new e-trucks are not the final destination, but rather an acceleration towards the future. We continue to invest in sustainable technology and innovative IT solutions that contribute to a cleaner, smarter, and more efficient logistics process.\u201d (Michel de Bock, 2025)<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Sustainability and IT as the foundation of our operations<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our sustainability strategy goes beyond deploying electric vehicles. Since the successful implementation of CO\u2082 tracking on 1 January 2024, we have been able to accurately calculate emissions per modality. This allows us to transparently demonstrate that intermodal transport generates significantly less CO\u2082 than traditional road transport.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">We also continue to innovate in IT. Through real-time monitoring, proactive cost-control tools and data-driven decision-making, we maximise transparency and operational efficiency. These digital innovations enable us to respond flexibly to customer needs and market developments.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Intermodal container transport: reliable, efficient and future-proof<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">With over 25 years of experience in container transport, CTV understands better than anyone the importance of leveraging the strengths of each transport mode. By minimising the distance covered by road, we offer our clients an efficient, cost-effective and more sustainable solution. The new Volvo FM Electric trucks are particularly suited to container transport in and around logistics hotspots such as Venlo.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Driving innovation for a greener future<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">At CTV, we believe sustainability and innovation go hand in hand. The two Volvo FM Electric trucks therefore represent a deliberate choice to further develop a future-oriented and responsible logistics model. By integrating these E-trucks into our daily operations, we are taking yet another step towards a greener and smarter transport network.  <\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">CTV continues \u2013 as a pioneer in intermodal solutions \u2013 to build a sustainable and innovation-driven logistics future with dedication.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>VENLO \u2013 CTV is proud to announce its investment in two brand-new Volvo FM Electric trucks.
