Fontaine Modification Recognized For Environmentally Sustainable Fleet Management Practices

The company was presented the award in recognition of its support and recommendation of sustainable fleet management products, practices and protocols to its many customers, which is fulfillment of one of the association's operational tenants.

Fontaine Modification, a Marmon Group/Berkshire Hathaway company, received a Council on Environmental Standards Association (CES) recognition award for its support and advancement of environmentally sustainable fleet management. 

Judy Williams, CES president and CEO, and James Williams, vice president, presented the 2019 award to Fontaine’s Brad Howard, director of fleet operations; Wes Lundy, purchasing manager; and Brian Gagnon, director of supply chain, in recognition of the company’s support and recommendation of sustainable fleet management products, practices and protocols to its many customers, which is fulfillment of one of the association’s operational tenants.

“We cross-reference and refer Council members and like-minded consumers to companies exhibiting strong environmental stewardship – and a commitment to honoring the intellectual properties and ideas of the people who are improving our world – to help build a 360-degree, integrated system of sustainability,” said Williams. “Participants throughout the supply chain have countless opportunities to help grow green fleets across America. When Fontaine and other companies share knowledge and environmentally sound products, practices and ideas with OEMs and the trucking industry itself, they are promoting and supporting environmentally sustainable fleet management that benefits people, planet and profit.”
