Lufthansa Cargo and BSI Partner to Reduce CO2 Emissions with Sustainable Aviation Fuel

Share

Lufthansa Cargo and Best Services International Freight (BSI) have agreed to reduce the Chinese logistics company’s CO2 emissions from airfreight by investing in Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF). BSI will invest in around 137,000 litres of SAF at Lufthansa Cargo to offset the CO2 emissions caused by its flights.

The agreement was reached on June 26 during the “transport logistic China” trade fair in Shanghai.

J. Florian Pfaff, Head of Region Asia Pacific at Lufthansa Cargo, said, “Best Services International Freight is our first customer in China to opt for the use of more than 100 tons of SAF. Examples like this help reduce our CO2 emissions and promote the use of SAF worldwide. Every customer who takes advantage of this opportunity is making a significant contribution to the decarbonization of logistics. The interest shows us that there is great potential for this, especially in Asia.”

Dr. Wilson Wong, Group CEO of BSI, added, “The cooperation with Lufthansa Cargo strengthens our partnership. As China’s leading air cargo logistics company and an industry leader in the digitalization process, we combine progress with responsibility. With limited SAF production globally, agreements like this are of paramount importance.”

This collaboration underscores the commitment of both companies to sustainability and highlights the growing importance of SAF in reducing the environmental impact of air cargo logistics.
