Bridgestone Mobility Solutions – TCO & sustainability driving integrated contracts

,

Although tyres account for only 2 to 4% of total fleet costs, they play a disproportionately large role in influencing other expenses, affecting fuel consumption, vehicle maintenance, and even safety. All these factors contribute to total cost of ownership, but by prioritising effective tyre management, fleet operators can significantly reduce fuel costs, decrease maintenance requirements, and maximise vehicle uptime. For Bridgestone, the provision of tailored solutions that help fleets optimise their cost structures is a business of growing significance.

Webfleet offering assistance with CSRD compliance

,

Although the European Union’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) does not directly affect UK firms, stock-listed companies with EU subsidiaries and more than 500 employees must record CO2 emissions from this year for 2025 reporting. The CSRD will trawl its net further each year until, by 2027, the requirement to record CO2 data will apply to all UK companies with a non-EU parent and more than €135 million in EU turnover. Bridgestone Mobility Solutions says its Webfleet solution can help fleets impacted the CSRD.
