DHL’s race to sustainability accelerates with Formula 1 partnership renewal

Tóm tắt nội dung

In a commitment to sustainability and innovation, DHL and Formula 1 have sealed a multi-year extension of their partnership, marking DHL’s two-decade milestone as the Official Logistics Partner of Formula 1.

The announcement signals a pivotal moment in the world of motorsports logistics, as DHL doubles down on its efforts to foster a greener future for the sport.

With Formula 1’s ambitious Net Zero goal looming on the horizon for 2030, the partnership between DHL marks the transition into a more sustainable era of transport and logistics. This year’s collaboration sees the introduction of an additional 19 biofuel-powered trucks, propelling the total fleet to 37 trucks. Each truck, on average, achieves an 83% reduction in carbon emissions compared to their diesel predecessors.

Arjan Sissing, global head of brand marketing at DHL Group, underscores the significance of the renewed partnership, stating: “We’re not just renewing our partnership; we’re celebrating DHL’s two-decade legacy as Formula 1’s trusted logistics partner, powering the pulse of the sport between the races.” The partnership, he notes, stands as a testament to shared values and a collective vision for a greener, more efficient future.

The 2024 Formula 1 season promises an exhilarating line-up of 24 races across 21 countries and five continents. Notably, the return to China marks a symbolic milestone in the sport’s resurgence post-pandemic. DHL stands at the helm of the enormous logistical effort of transporting up to 1,400 tons of high-value freight to each race venue.

The introduction of a state-of-the-art DHL motorhome equipped with solar panels, charging stations and recycling facilities underscores the company’s dedication to sustainable innovation. Paul Fowler, head of global motorsports logistics at DHL Global Forwarding, expresses enthusiasm for the eco-conscious initiatives, stating: “We’re thrilled to collaborate with a partner who shares our unwavering commitment to sustainability and embraces innovative green solutions.”

Jonny Haworth, director of commercial partnerships at Formula 1, hails DHL’s integral role in the sport’s transformative journey. “DHL has been a cornerstone of Formula 1’s logistical success, and our partnership has ushered in a new era of sustainable motorsports,” Haworth remarks.

DHL Group’s ambitious sustainability strategy aims to slash logistics-related carbon emissions to Net Zero by 2050. With a planned investment of up to €7billion (£6bn) by 2030, the company is poised to spearhead a paradigm shift towards sustainability in the logistics industry.

As the 2024 Formula 1 season revs into high gear, DHL’s enduring partnership with the sport serves as a testament to the transformative power of collaboration and innovation.
