Bucharest, Romania: Iveco has offered the use of its demonstration fleet to the authorities in Romania.
The first three vehicles (pictured above) have been delivered to Red Cross Romania: two have freezing units and one is set up with a thermally insulated box to transport medical equipment.
Two of the vehicles are fuelled by compressed natural gas, and Engie Romania has offered to provide fuel free. A fourth vehicle has been offered to the Galati Community Group to transport food and sanitary materials for the disabled or the disadvantaged.
In Spain, Iveco factories are using their 3D printers to produce protective face masks. More than 400 units have been delivered in a week to hospitals, the Red Cross, care homes and the police.
In Italy, Iveco has donated five Daily vehicles to the Red Cross in Piedmont for use until the end of November 2020.
In Finland, Iveco has donated the use of a new Daily ambulance to Helsinki University Hospital for the next three months. The ambulance will transport Covid-19 patients to the hospital.
Thomas Hilse, brand president, Iveco said: “The Iveco brand is conscious of its social responsibility as one of the world’s largest producers of trucks and buses. Our vehicles enable the transportation of critical goods and help protect local communities across our planet, as well as supporting global food production and the construction of vital infrastructure. We will remain at the side of our communities to support them: because only together, we are unstoppable”.
