Tinkering away in a garage in Bishop’s Stortford, Hertfordshire, to produce a zero-emission engine, which then gets taken on by the likes of Sainsbury’s, Unilever and Marks & Spencer, is an unlikely story. But that’s the Dearman story summed up. Our liquid nitrogen-powered engine is a groundbreaking [...]
We are now less than three weeks away from the Budget. All eyes will be on Chancellor Philip Hammond to address some of the nation’s most pressing issues- which of course includes air quality. Britain’s air pollution problem January 2010 was the deadline for EU Member States to comply [...]
Dearman’s groundbreaking liquid nitrogen technology is carving itself out as a solution to help clean up polluted air. But of course, the innovative and versatile nature of the technology means it has a number of applications and Dearman is now taking on another major pressing issue: food waste. The [...]
The facts are staggering- a third of the food our planet produces is lost or wasted, roughly 1.3 billion tonnes a year. This is taking place right across the supply chain- from initial harvest to unsold items to food thrown away by households- and therefore calls for an equally [...]
The logistics sector is in flux. The backbone of many successful industries- the cold chain- is being shaped by internal factors such as increasing digitalisation, big data and external factors such as political and consumer pressures. Cold chain players who will still be in the market five or ten [...]
Environment Secretary Michael Gove today (22nd May) launched the Government’s major strategy to clean up Britain’s polluted air. The Clean Air Strategy also refers to Dearman’s innovative work to develop zero emission transport refrigeration, particularly our successful trial with supermarket giant Sainsbury’s. That our pioneering work has been cited by [...]
It is great to see that Michael Gove as Secretary of State for the Environment has vowed to take action “at pace” on banning plastic straws, cotton buds, drink stirrers and other disposable items. Well-placed government intervention can drive positive change for our environment, but this should give us pause [...]
One thing’s for certain: the need to tackle Britain’s air pollution is not an issue that’s going away any time soon. In addition to last year’s plan from ministers to reduce illegal levels of nitrogen oxide emissions, this Spring we are expecting a consultation to be launched on the government’s [...]
Last week, Dearman was invited to attend an Air Quality Showcase event, held at the House of Commons and organised by the All-Party Parliamentary Group on Air Pollution. The event was well-timed given all the policy currently being developed to reduce harmful levels of emissions across Britain. The showcase was [...]
Compared to their diesel counterparts, the positive impact on air pollution of zero-emission transport refrigeration units (TRUs) is evident. This is certainly worth restating in light of the recent report published by prestigious medical journal, The Lancet, which links 6.5 million deaths worldwide to air pollution. Another strong benefit of [...]
