Freight Wing Incorporated - Proud Affiliate of the Smart Way Transport Partnership

Freight Wing is proud toThe U.S. Environmental Protection Agency's SmartWay Transport Partnership is a voluntary public-private partnership that addresses greenhouse gas emissions, fuel consumption, criteria pollutants (NOx and PM), and operating costs associated with ground freight transportation operations. Through the program, EPA and its partners expect to eliminate 33 to 66 million metric tons of CO2 emissions and up to 200,000 tons of NOx emissions per year by 2012. This represents savings of as much as 150 million barrels of oil a year– equivalent to taking about 12 million cars off the road. trailer skirt

In addition to helping the environment, the SmartWay program is good for business. By attracting membership from both freight carriers and shippers, who pledge to use the carriers for their transportation needs, the program creates valuable economic synergies. The program also increases public awareness of its member's environmental commitment, and provides assistance in implementing fuel and money saving strategies.
