Leopard cares for our environment

Leopard demonstrates its commitment to the environment through action.

We were the first bus company in New Zealand to run our entire fleet on bio-fuel during a 12-month trial, which ended in May 2008. We did it because we care about the environment and want to help make a difference.

Bio-fuel Update
Leopard Coachlines is now using Bio-Diesel in all of its fleet effective Mid February 2010.   We realise the environmental benefits of bio-fuels and reducing carbon admission and decided to take the lead. This is after our successful trials.

The bio-diesel for the Leopard fleet is manufactured by Bio Diesel NZ, a  renewal fuel from Solid Engery.   It is blended with standard diesel to form the B5 mix and is called Bio-Gold.

Bike Racks and Water Recycling

We are also trialling bike racks on 7 of our Christchurch city buse routes and 25 urban buses which are proving popular with local cyclists.

Other eco-friendly measures include the use of a water-recycling bus wash at our Christchurch depot and we are always looking for new ways to help protect the environment.
