DHL Global Forwarding has teamed up with IAG Cargo in a strategic partnership to promote sustainable aviation fuel (SAF). This collaboration aligns with Deutsche Post DHL Group’s sustainability objectives of achieving net-zero emissions logistics by 2050.

DHL Global Forwarding has committed to purchasing 3 million gallons of SAF Scope 3 transport emissions reductions in 2023. The SAF, certified by the International Sustainability and Carbon Certification (ISCC), is derived from used cooking oil and food waste.

IAG Cargo, as part of its environmental strategy, has pledged that 10% of its flights will be fueled by SAF by 2030. The partnership with DHL Global Forwarding is a significant move toward achieving this goal and demonstrates IAG Cargo’s proactive approach to embedding sustainable practices across its operations.

DHL Global Forwarding also offers its customers the GoGreen Plus service to make their supply chains more environmentally friendly.
