Sustainability case study

In 2010 Leyland Trucks received the Green Business Award for Waste Reduction and Recycling. This recognises the most innovative, ambitious and effective initiatives for achieving environmental sustainability and implementing smart business practices.

Leyland competed against Coca-Cola, Fisher Scientific UK, Egger UK, Johnson Tiles and Lenzing Fibers and was recognised for its multi-year journey to become the first commercial vehicle manufacturer in Europe to achieve zero waste to landfill, through the detailed identification of waste streams, waste segregation at the point of use and identification of recycling methods.
