    We're working to accelerate the shift to a new era of sustainable global motorsports. A huge part of those efforts is focused on engineering more sustainable motorsports tyres – from the raw materials we make those tyres from, to their performance capabilities, and their recyclability at end of life. The Bridgestone World Solar Challenge is at the forefront of these efforts. In last year's edition of the 3,000km solar-powered race across the Australian Outback – which marked 10 years of Bridgestone's sponsorship – we introduced ENLITEN-equipped tyres for the first time in motorsports. Lightweight, and providing low rolling resistance and wear resistance, our specialist ENLITEN tyres maximised the teams' performance – and demonstrated our sustainable technology at the same time. The tyres featured a recycled and renewable material ratio of 63% – over double the ratio of the tyres used in the 2019 event. We're continuing to evolve for the next race's next instalment as we work to realise a greener, cleaner future.

    Here's how our Webfleet solution helped Elis, a UK leader in circular services, cut fuel consumption by over €2 million. Textile rental and laundry service provider Elis – and its 750-vehicle fleet – makes around 5,000 deliveries to restaurants, hotels, hospitals and manufacturers every day. However, Elis needed to make clear improvements in both driver safety and fleet sustainability – and do so with one integrated solution. Elis began working with Webfleet to combine its fleet management needs – telematics, cameras, mileage auditing, fleet data reporting and transport management – on a single interface. The company now has an accurate, real-time single source of truth across its fleet, and a complete risk management audit trail – helping Elis save an additional €1.4 million in insurance costs.

    We've taken another major step on the road to carbon neutrality in our Manufacturing operations across EMEA. According to the results of our latest independently verified Carbon Footprint assessment, our manufacturing plants reduced their total CO2 emissions by 66% from the 2011 baseline to the end of 2023. This means that we have exceeded our global Milestone 2030 goal of halving CO2 emissions – seven years ahead of the target date! Our ultimate aim is carbon neutrality (Scope 1 & 2) by 2050. Thanks to this incredible achievement, our company moves closer to delivering on this commitment and the overarching Bridgestone E8 Commitment, as we contribute to a sustainable future for all.
