A clean concept for more sustainability

Modern lithium-ion fleet for Werner & Mertz in Mainz

Environmental protection is a top priority for Werner & Mertz. This is why the leading provider of green cleaning agents and detergents has restructured its fleet to comprise 96% lithium-ion trucks, thereby not only ensuring maximum performance, but also reduced emissions.

Challenges

  • Processing a steadily increasing order volume with approx. 3,000 orders annually
  • Intensive operations with high demands on the trucks used
  • Long distances covered and cumbersome loading processes due to on-site warehousing conditions
  • Large service and maintenance costs due to lead-acid batteries in use

Solutions

  • Innovative fleet concept to optimise the company's environmental goals
  • Almost the entire fleet has been switched over to Jungheinrich lithium-ion technology
  • A wide selection of Jungheinrich trucks to cope with a wide range of logistical tasks
  • Jungheinrich FMS Fleet Management System for cross-site management of the truck fleet

Successes

  • Improved performance and reduced emissions due to the switch to lithium-ion technology
  • Decentralised rapid and booster charging ensures constant truck operation across three-shifts
  • Control of the chargers via load management for optimal use of the electrical infrastructure
  • Increased process reliability thanks to outstanding service and technical support from Jungheinrich
  • Switch to 150 lithium-ion vehicles achieves a projected CO₂e reduction of around 26% in the usage phase over five years compared to the previous lead-acid technology
