Teixeira Duarte – Engenharia e Construções has chosen bi-fuel vehicles with a lower environmental impact for its new car fleet in Portugal. This decision took into account the characteristics of the business trips made by employees, as well as ecological and performance factors. According to data from the European Liquefied Gas Association, LPG emits 75% less carbon monoxide and 11% less carbon dioxide than a petrol car, and produces 30% less noise than a diesel car.
The first vehicles in the new fleet were delivered yesterday, 30 July, to around 40 employees at a symbolic ceremony held at the Montijo Operational Centre, attended by the Chairman of the Board of Directors of Teixeira Duarte, Manuel Maria Teixeira Duarte, members of the Board of Directors and representatives of Renault Portugal.
