Our Green Policy
We were the first company to introduce EURO II & EURO III buses. In 2014 the company decided to take an even bolder step in line with our “Green Policy” and opt for EURO III fully automatic computerised gearbox buses. EURO III means that the emissions from the engine have to comply with the European Emission Standards as set down in the EURO III compliant regulations.
The benefits of reducing emissions & introducing EURO II/III Buses
- Reduction of Pollution Levels of CO and CO2
- Healthier air for the citizens to breath
- Less health problems and cost to due effects of Air Pollution
- Less emission of greenhouse gases
- Less global warming
- Cleaner city
- More modern city appearance from proper public transport buses
- More safety and comfort for the passengers
Our company therefore became the first to be providing support of Cleaner Air and a smaller carbon footprint in Kigali which all goes to help reduce the Greenhouse gases emissions which cause Global warming and reducing the amount of Particulate Matter Particles of 10 micrograms or less which are the main cause of respiratory illnesses from air pollution.
