That&#8217;s why we pay close attention to how we organize transport and processes. We regularly check where we can reduce emissions and save energy. Every step we take should contribute to protecting our environment. This way of thinking is reflected in everything we do &#8211; from daily transportation to planning new solutions.    <\/p>\n<h2>DENKINGER Eco-Values<\/h2>\n<h3>Neutral TRANSPORT<\/h3>\n<h4>CO2 compensation<\/h4>\n<p>Every transport leaves traces &#8211; we compensate for them. That&#8217;s why we precisely record the CO\u2082 emissions of every journey. With our tree certificates, we ensure that new trees are planted. Each tree grows into a living symbol of responsibility and absorbs around 22 kg of CO\u2082 every year. In this way, every transport is not just a journey from A to B, but also a contribution to a greener future.    <\/p>\n<h3>Fuel alternatives<\/h3>\n<h4>HVO diesel &amp; hydrogen<\/h4>\n<p>HVO diesel is a synthetic fuel obtained from waste and residual materials such as vegetable oil, animal fat or used cooking oil. It is fully compatible with modern Euro 6 engines and can be used directly in your truck without any technical modifications. <\/p>\n<h3>E-TRUCK TRANSPORTATION  <\/h3>\n<h4>The fleet goes green<\/h4>\n<p>Our fleet includes several Volvo FH and eActros with electric drive. They have a range of up to 500 kilometers. The batteries have 600 kWh and the motors deliver 400 kW &#8211; that&#8217;s around 544 hp. So we drive powerfully, quietly and without exhaust fumes.   <\/p>\n<h3>RAIL TRANSPORT<\/h3>\n<h4>Five sidings<\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"78\" data-end=\"276\">DENKINGER prefers to build sites where there are rail connections &#8211; or we create them ourselves. This makes transportation easier and noticeably reduces the burden on the environment. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"278\" data-end=\"574\">A good example is our site in Rottenacker. In 2023, we will have the <a href=\"https:\/\/denkinger-logistik.de\/en\/logistics\/denkinger-rail-hub\/\"><strong>DENKINGER RAIL-HUB<\/strong><\/a> with two modern transhipment halls. Entire trains can enter directly and be unloaded using the latest technology. Onward transportation in the region is climate-friendly with our e-trucks.   <\/p>\n<h3>ECO CONSTRUCTION<\/h3>\n<h4>Wood &#8211; Light &#8211; Water<\/h4>\n<p data-start=\"77\" data-end=\"242\"><strong data-start=\"77\" data-end=\"112\">We harness the power of the sun.<\/strong><br data-start=\"112\" data-end=\"115\">Our hall roofs and walls generate clean electricity.

This allows us to measure the CO\u2082 emissions of each individual transport precisely and traceably. <\/p>\n<p data-start=\"443\" data-end=\"614\">We also use specially developed analysis tools. They enable us to precisely calculate the ecological footprint of each transport &#8211; and to optimize it in a targeted manner. <\/p>\n<p>\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#seitenanfang\"><br \/>\n  Scroll up<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h3>\n  THEY ALREADY KNEW &#8230;  <\/h3>\n<p>  &#8230; that one freight wagon can replace up to four trucks?  <\/p>\n<h3>\n  THIS SAVES A LOT OF CO2!  <\/h3>\n<p>  In 2023, our customers offset over 5000 tons.<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"https:\/\/denkinger-logistik.de\/en\/transportation\/rail-transport\/\" target=\"_blank\"><br \/>\n  On rail transport  <\/a><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<iframe src=\"https:\/\/co2.denkinger-logistik.de\/\" width=\"100%\" height=\"1200\" frameborder=\"0\" style=\"border-radius: 15px;\"><\/iframe><br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#seitenanfang\"><br \/>\n  Scroll up<br \/>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a><\/p>\n<h2>THINGS ARE MOVING FORWARD: STEADILY GROWING E-TRUCK FLEET  <\/h2>\n<p data-start=\"91\" data-end=\"400\"><strong data-start=\"91\" data-end=\"131\">We act before others react.<\/strong><br data-start=\"131\" data-end=\"134\">The demand for environmentally friendly transportation is growing.

In order to compensate for this, we offer the possibility of neutralizing the<sub>CO2 emissions<\/sub> per transport through the additional purchase of tree certificates. This is because trees can store an average of 22 kg<sub>of CO2<\/sub> per year. So if one or more trees are planted, the<sub>CO2<\/sub> emitted is neutralized again.<\/p>\n<p>  What does this look like in practice?<\/p>\n<p>In order to make our transports<sub>CO2-neutral<\/sub>, we cooperate with a local organization that runs its own forest tree nursery and takes care of the preservation and reforestation of forest areas in Germany. With every purchase, a certificate is issued showing the number of trees planted and the<sub>CO2<\/sub> saved. The certificates are also ISO-certified by T\u00dcV S\u00fcd. On request, the GPS position of the planted trees can also be transmitted, thus ensuring the transparency of the planting. The certificate can also be issued directly to our customers on request and used for advertising purposes.  <\/p>\n<p><strong><em>How can I as a customer make my transportation<sub>CO2<\/sub> neutral?<\/em><\/strong><br \/>Just get in touch with us!
