DB Schenker has extensively investigated the use of exoskeletons at several logistics locations in Germany, in order to relieve warehouse personnel of physically-demanding tasks in the long term.

Since the Inca Empire and dating back to 5000 B.C., the lives of alpacas have been preserved and extended by using their wool to create clothing and other materials. Found primarily in the Peruvian Andes, over four million alpacas are tended by thousands of Peruvians who are living far away from modern life.

The Mobile Malaria Project team, led by Dr. George Busby from the University of Oxford, has travelled over 7,500km with a modified Land Rover Discovery across Africa to exchange with local experts on the challenges in malaria control and to teach African scientists how to use the latest technology in this field.

As part of their corporate social responsibility initiatives, DB Schenker Egypt and El-Sewedy Technical Academy (STA) are working together to offer a free-of-charge logistics program based on the German vocational training model.

At DB Schenker we are proud to deliver excellence as a logistics provider, and we are just as proud to support excellence on other fields of expertise. We are therefore more than happy to support cutting-edge international research in an impressive and challenging operation.

The transportation and logistics industries are facing ever-increasing pressure due to a combination of more-frequently occurring extreme weather patterns and congested roads, tight deadlines and high expectations related to delivery times.

DB Schenker provides its customers with access to over a hundred marketplaces globally by partnering with leading SaaS platform provider, ChannelAdvisor.

DB Schenker is currently supporting Jaguar Land Rover in the fight against the disease malaria, which kills about 400,000 people every year, mainly in sub-Saharan Africa.
