STG Trucks for a sustainable future

IN AN era focused on sustainability and efficiencies, the transport industry has an opportunity to showcase the use of raw materials to create transport solutions that help to contribute to lower environmental impact, the most efficient use of materials, and the ability to afford its operators high levels of comfort, safety, low emissions and an economy of operation.

Much of this revolves around social responsibility and regenerative sustainability, both playing a key role not only in the transport industry but affecting the community and the profile of the businesses employing sustainability techniques.

Making a commitment to innovation is one way that the transport industry is forging a new identity. Through innovation in building techniques and in the use of materials, many of the goals of sustainability and efficiency can be reached.

Transport leader STG Global places its sustainability drive as a key driver in the Australian market, as reflected by its production of innovative, purpose-built trucks.

One of its leading features is the development of galvanised tanks as vessels for hauling liquids.

STG said that the galvanised tank, which is steel that is coated with corrosion-resistant zinc through a galvanising process, reflects its commitment to operational durability and environmental responsibility.

The tanks - made of hot-dip galvanised steel - carry a nickname of “2-chassis tanks” because they can outlast the truck by two times, or more.

This earns the tanks a reputation for durability and reliability, and also for cost effectiveness as they greatly extend the life of the capital expense beyond rival products.

On top of that, the materials used to make the tanks are needed half as much as rival tanks, effectively halving the reliance on raw materials and greatly reducing manufacturing.

It also minimises environmental impact from the mining or raw materials through to the recycling opportunities at the product’s end of life.

Another STG Global mandate for sustainability and efficiencies is the meticulous approach to the truck.

The company focuses on regular maintenance; it fine-tunes the engine for greater fuel efficiency; it looks at tyre pressure; and makes aerodynamic improvements.

It said that this comprehensive strategy elevated the efficiency of the trucks and is a proactive stance in reducing fuel consumption and emissions. 

All STG Global trucks undergo consistent maintenance practices to ensure the best performance, with scheduled check-ups and inspections to guarantee that each vehicle operates at optimal efficiency and reduces energy waste to a minimum.

The simple task of regularly checking tyre inflation makes significant benefits to fuel efficiency and performance by reducing the rolling resistance of the tyre.

STG Global said that its water trucks were another example of its work.

These purpose-built trucks play a vital role in the construction industry by dispensing water to suppress airborne particles (dust) and so reduce the dangers of haze.

The haze not only obscures working environments through poor visibility but is a danger to human health.

By watering down the work area, safety improves through better visibility and better air quality.

Inn recognising the need for sustainability, water trucks can efficiently manage consumption by looking at alternatives such as salt water from the sea, and install advanced treatment for reuse to boost the industry’s sustainable practices.

Water trucks are a significant help to the mining sector by limiting water volume through conservation techniques.

They also help by introducing seawater as an alternative to drinking-quality water, and by helping promote water treatment methods for sustainability and to reduce impacts on the environment.

In addition, the trucks are at the centre of safeguarding the quality of water that is discharged after use.

Another of the purpose-built trucks from STG Global are its vacuum trucks in the waste management industry.

These machines actively contribute to reducing harmful emissions and make the environment better for the communities.

They are efficient at minimising contamination through the prevention of the spread of pollutants and in ensuring a healthier environment. 

The vacuum trucks also are efficient at collecting a diverse range of waste materials and transport those materials with minimal spillage and environmental impact.

All of these factors ensure that the trucks maintain high levels of safety and cleanliness during transit while contributing to sustainable waste management.

STG Global offers a range of purpose-built trucks designed specifically for sustainable operations with durable performance and minimal ownership costs.
