DHL Express and SAF One sign offtake agreement for SAF from Bahrain

May 18, 2026 |

In Bahrain, DHL Express and Dubai-based next generation SAF developer SAF One announced the signing of a landmark offtake agreement, bringing the first sustainable aviation fuel (SAF) production facility in the Middle East into DHL’s global SAF supply network. Under the agreement and as a key customer for the facility, DHL Express will receive long term access to 25,000 metric tons of unblended (neat) SAF per year – a total of 250,000 metric tons over a ten-year term from start of production, planned from 2028. The SAF will be produced at SAF One’s flagship plant in Bahrain, enabling measurable lifecycle CO2e reductions across DHL’s regional and intercontinental air network, and support DHL’s aim to increase the use of sustainable aviation fuels to 30 percent by 2030.
