Besi APac inks deal with DHL Express to reduce greenhouse gas emissions via SAF
In Malaysia, Besi APac, the Malaysian unit of semiconductor assembly equipment manufacturer BE Semiconductor Industries, has signed an agreement to join DHL Express’ GoGreen Plus program to reduce emissions from its time-definite international shipments through investment in sustainable aviation fuel.
The collaboration is expected to represent an approximate decrease of more than 400 tons in Well-to-Wheel (WTW) CO2e.
Launched in 2023, GoGreen Plus allows customers to leverage SAF to lower their indirect Scope 3 emissions in their value chain arising from upstream and downstream transportation and distribution. The service is made possible by several SAF contracts that DHL has signed with partners like BP, Neste, Cosmo Energy, and Cathay Group.
GoGreen Plus is enabled by the ‘book & claim’ approach, where DHL can directly replace fossil fuels with sustainable fuels within its network and attribute the associated lifecycle emission reductions to customers like Besi APac, even when their shipments are not physically transported with the assets using these fuels.
Besi APac’s subscription to GoGreen Plus applies across its overseas trade lanes, encompassing key markets in Asia Pacific, Europe, Americas, and Middle East.
