In a major step towards sustainable transport in India, Henkel Adhesive Technologies has launched what it claims is the country’s first mid-haul re-powered electric truck operations, in collaboration with an integrated logistics and transport company and a partner specialising in EV retrofitting solutions.

The pilot electric logistics service connects key industrial corridors across two major routes: Chennai to Pune (1,321 km) and Pune to Halol (713 km). The trucks, which have been converted from diesel to electric through the installation of a full electric powertrain kit, boast a 250km driving range on a single charge and support payloads of up to 8 tonnes.

According to Henkel, a single round trip on the Chennai–Pune route with the re-powered electric truck could cut greenhouse gas emissions by approximately 1,212kg, showcasing the significant sustainability potential of retrofitted electric freight transport in India’s mid-haul logistics sector.

The initiative aligns with Henkel’s global sustainability goals, which include achieving net-zero emissions across its entire value chain by 2045. The company aims for a minimum 90 percent reduction in Scope 1 and 2 emissions and substantial cuts across Scope 3 emissions by promoting eco-design, low-emission raw materials, supplier engagement and cleaner logistics.

By pioneering this transformation in mid-haul logistics, Henkel India seeks to catalyse broader adoption of electric-powered freight solutions in one of the world’s fastest-growing transportation markets.
