Schenker Åkeri AB – one of Sweden's largest haulage companies

Schenker Åkeri is one of Sweden's largest haulage companies with approximately 1,100 employees and 1,100 vehicles. The company was established in 2002 and handles long-distance transport and distribution throughout the country.

We at Schenker Åkeri work actively to reduce climate impact by investing in vehicles, fuel and technology that are independent of fossil fuels. We work closely with both vehicle suppliers and fuel manufacturers to manage the transition in the best way.

All our drivers are CPC-trained (certificate of professional competence) to drive as fuel-efficiently as possible, benefiting both the environment and the economy. Through monthly follow-up of our vehicles, we monitor fuel consumption and the use of driver support. We have limited our idling via automatic shut-off and restricted the speed allowed on tachographs to reduce our environmental impact.

Thanks to these measures, we have succeeded in reducing our emissions by approximately 40 percent since 2010 – significantly better than current Swedish legal requirements.
