AFI Rentals continues its sustainability efforts, including the ongoing success of its Carbon Offset Scheme. For the quarter ending March 2025, the company made a further significant investment in the programme, bringing the total amount of CO2 offset by AFI since launch to 948 tonnes. This growth continues to be driven by the growing number of customers ordering online and participating in the scheme, as well as efficiency savings through fleet transport planning used across the UK group.
As part of AFI’s Carbon Offsetting Pledge, all customers renting powered access machines online automatically contribute to the initiative's impact. For every online order, AFI offsets 200% of the emissions associated with the machine's delivery and 100% of the emissions generated by the collection. This commitment reflects AFI's dedication to reducing the environmental impact of its operations, allowing customers to make a positive difference through their rentals with AFI.
The scheme, which invests in renewable energy and nature-based carbon avoidance projects in partnership with the trusted sustainability platform Ecologi, continues to gain traction. As online orders grow, so does AFI’s contribution to global sustainability, showcasing the company’s role as a leader in environmental responsibility within the powered access rental sector.
