Kuehne+Nagel renews its strategic collaboration with Acer Europe to decarbonise sea shipments by using biofuel.

The partnership, now in its third year, has decreased emissions by 475 tons, showcasing the efforts of both companies to adopt more sustainable practices.

In addition to supporting Acer’s reduction efforts with its certified Book and Claim solution for maritime biofuel, Kuehne+Nagel also provides advanced data-driven insights from seaexplorer as well as order-level emissions reporting.

Kuehne+Nagel pointed out that Acer aims to cut its Scope 3 emissions by 35% by 2030 from 2020 levels, highlighting the important role their transport partner plays in this effort.

"We are proud to work with Kuehne+Nagel, a reliable and trustworthy partner, in our goal to reduce carbon emissions from our logistics operations. A few years ago, we started several joint carbon-reduction initiatives, and the results are improving year over year," said Riccardo Bernasconi, supply chain director at Acer EMEA.

"Acer's inclusive approach to sustainability looks far ahead and focuses on shared responsibility. We are proud to contribute to their efforts and are looking forward to introducing new carbon-reducing initiatives this year focused on distribution processes," said Ave Crotti, sustainability manager in Italy and Iberia at Kuehne+Nagel.
