Lufthansa cargo Environmental protection department
Lufthansa
cargo is one of the largest air cargo handlers in the Europe and according to
the head of environmental management project at Lufthansa cargo division
believes that their cargo freighters need just under two litres of fuel on
average to go 100 kilometres with 100 kilogram of cargo weight. According to
the head of environmental management division, Lufthansa cargo is putting a
massive effort to ultimately reduce the fuel consumption of the cargo fleet.
It
will benefit both environment and the cargo handler. Lufthansa has purchased
five new Boeing 777F freighters recently as they are the most efficient
freighters in the class and save massive amount of fuel as well. Secondly,
Lufthansa has changed their cargo containers with the ultra-lightweight
containers and they have polished the engine blades for ultra-efficient air
flow in the jets. Digitisation of the cargo operations will also help them to
save the environment with reduced use of paper. These innovations will
facilitate the Lufthansa cargo and DB Schenker to even reduce the carbon
footprints in the future and save the environment. The agreements help the
companies to set their targets and allow them to integrate their responsibility
in the business relations and achieve their goals in an efficient way.
