External Logistics

We achieve CO2 reductions by a high rate of transports by train, which already have zero greenhouse gas emissions on the majority of relations. We already prioritize logistics modi with little emission when it comes to negotiating orders with our customers.

Since 2021, we have been using the tariff DB-eco for transports to Sweden, Denmark, the Netherlands, Belgium as well as Switzerland and as a result we save up to 8,000 tons of CO2 annually.

In the future, transports by truck will be carried out with bio diesel, hydrogen or the latest propulsion technology for trucks.

For vessel logistics and port goods handling we prefer logistic technologies and partners offering reduced CO2 emissions.

Internal Logistics

Our long-term goal is: replacing of all combustion engines by sustainable technologies such as electricity, fuel cells or green fuels. This will affect all means of transportation within our company:

Vehicles

Scrap Ferries

Locomotives

sustainable mobility in Stahlwerk Thüringen

In the future, we plan to install charging stations for electric cars in selected parking areas. In a pilot phase, we will set up two charging stations still this year, where our own vehicles as well as our customers and suppliers can charge electricity. In the long term, the charging current will also be made available to our employees. The charging stations will partly be provided with solar energy generated by photovoltaic systems on carport roofs.
