We are developing a new type of sustainability in the rental industry
As part of the circular economy, klarx helps advance sustainability in all 4 areas: in production, energy consumption, logistics, and longer lifecycles. This gives us the opportunity to reduce the carbon footprint of construction equipment by up to 54% (Source).
In the four areas of the circular economy in the rental industry, klarx supports sustainability through:
- Increased utilization of construction equipment and reduction of bound raw materials
- Lower energy consumption through modern construction equipment
- Lower fuel consumption through regional procurement strategy
- Reduced transport distances to less than 50km for significant reduction in logistics costs and CO² emissions
- Reduced CO² consumption through appropriate recycling of construction equipment in our inventory
The solar industry is one of our focus sectors where we have extensive experience and have already supported many customers ranging from medium-sized to large enterprises in the construction of solar and photovoltaic systems. Thanks to our fluid fleet and our machinery portfolio of more than 530,000 construction machines, we always have the right equipment available and can support solar builders with our expertise on their construction projects.
With modern machines and short transport distances, we promote sustainable construction of solar projects.
One of our solar customers is rnp Solar GmbH, which was able to make its procurement processes more efficient with klarx and can now rent the required machines 24/7 thanks to our software, the klarxMANAGER.
With our Fluid Fleet, our machines are available at partner depots throughout Germany, close to construction sites. Short transport routes reduce transportation costs and CO₂ emissions.
In cooperation with the Zeppelin Oil Lab, klarx was able to have the hydraulic oil of 65 machines tested this year. This made it possible to save 5,028 liters of hydraulic oil and further reduce environmental damage. Due to the success of the tests, additional types of oil tests for several machines in our Fluid Fleet are already being planned.
klarx stands for sustainability and it is one of our goals to advance this in the construction industry. Read more here about sustainability, forecasts for the construction industry and solar systems.
Construction Industry Forecast 2025
The construction industry is facing major changes. Looking at 2025, it becomes clear that topics such as digitalization and sustainability are becoming increasingly important. But how can construction companies really implement this transformation?
Sustainability in the Construction Industry
Europe is to become climate-neutral by 2050 - the construction industry must also make significant changes to achieve this goal. klarx presents 3 approaches that pave the way to greater sustainability quite easily.
Solar Installation Project
One way to achieve greater sustainability is through solar installations that use renewable energy and can help reduce environmental impact. klarx supported a construction project in Sengethal, where a 7.7 megawatt solar installation was implemented.
Are you wondering how to make your construction project more sustainable? Our Climate Officer at klarx is happy to help you with any questions about sustainability in equipment rental.
