In Germany, DB SCHENKER said that Mercedes-Benz has placed the largest single-volume order for SAF by a DB SCHENKER customer. The record agreement reduces the global automotive company’s CO2e emissions by 40,000 tons through the procurement of around 13,000 tons of SAF, DB SCHENKER said. The biofuel is accredited for export air freight shipments from Frankfurt to Beijing and Shanghai. It added. “DB SCHENKER and Mercedes-Benz have had a strong partnership for many decades. When DB SCHENKER launched the world’s first regular cargo flight covered by SAF in 2021, Mercedes-Benz was among the initial customers. Together, Mercedes-Benz and DB SCHENKER have reached yet another milestone,” the company said.
