Case study on Circular Economy: Hilti fleet management, renting equipment instead of buying it

Initial situation:

In the construction industry, where projects are often associated with high costs and a significant environmental footprint, companies are looking for ways to make their operations more efficient and sustainable.

Challenge:

Managing a large fleet of power tools can be both financially and logistically challenging. In addition, the constant purchase of new appliances leads to an increased environmental impact. How can a company manage its tool fleet efficiently while reducing costs and promoting sustainability?

Solution approach:

Hilti, a renowned company in the construction industry, offers an innovative solution with its fleet management service. This service enables companies to manage their tool fleet efficiently by having access to modern, maintained and always ready-to-use equipment without the need to own it. This not only reduces overall costs, but also promotes the sustainable use of resources, as the service life of the tools is extended and the need for new purchases is reduced.

Results:

By implementing Hilti’s fleet management service, companies have been able to optimize their operations and improve their environmental footprint. Customers benefit from reduced downtime, as the tools are always well maintained and ready for use, and from a reduction in environmental impact due to less production of new equipment. This model shows that efficient fleet management not only offers financial benefits, but also has a positive impact on the Sustainable World.
