Information

DB Schenker customers can now choose Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF) for their air transportto anywhere in the world , independent of the type of aircraft or airline used.

By virtually distributing biofuels, it is possible to avoid up to 100% of CO2 emissions.

The new global flight complements Schenck's fully-chartered weekly Germany-China route launched in spring 2021, which remains the only scheduled cargo flight in the world fully covered by SAF.

More than 150 round-trip flights in cooperation with Lufthansa Cargo have avoided more than 40,000 tons of CO2 emissions.

SAF's individual agreements with other airline partners will also continue, such as the recent purchase of SAF points by Singapore Airlines.

Jochen Thewes, CEO of DB Schenker, said: "We are extremely proud that we have launched this pioneering game-changing project with our trusted partner Lufthansa Cargo.

“Today, we took the next step and started building a global network of green air cargo . We have already purchased significant quantities of biofuels to drive the decarbonisation of our industry.

"DB Schenck customers can now virtually book SAF on all trade lanes to thousands of airports. This new flexibility is a success factor and good for the climate. Every tonne of biofuel counts."

Thorsten Meincke, DB Schenker Global Board Member for Air and Ocean Cargo, said: “Reducing the carbon footprint in the supply chain is not only possible in the distant future, but is already possible now.”

"Yes, sustainability comes at a price. But now there is a choice: DB Schenker's customers no longer need to use conventional kerosene for air freight.

“We hope this information will further drive sustainability in the aviation industry. Customers who have tested or already use our SAF service regularly are very satisfied.”

DB Schenker uses only certified palm oil-free biofuels. Currently, SAF is 3-5 times more expensive than common fossil fuels.

In their Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) report, customers who decide to pay an additional virtual allocation of SAF for air cargo will be certified to avoid the exact amount of greenhouse gases.

While the actual insertion of SAF may take place on different flights, the climate is protected by avoiding the exact CO2 emissions of flights or transport using conventional kerosene.

This process, called virtual application, can also be used for upstream emissions from the production and transportation of the biofuel itself.
