DHL Launches GoGreen Plus Decarbonization Portfolio: 10% Minimum Emissions Reduction for Sustainable Supply Chains

DHL Global Forwarding Unveils New GoGreen Plus Portfolio

Logistics giant DHL Group’s air and ocean freight business DHL Global Forwarding announced the launch of its new GoGreen Plus Portfolio, offering shippers a suite of decarbonization-focused products, including an industry-first offering providing 10% emissions reduction at a flat rate across markets, shipment types, and routes.

Core Service: GoGreen Plus Base provides shippers with a default 10% emissions reduction for all eligible shipments at a fixed flat rate, which applies across markets, shipment types, and routes, independent of origin or destination. The service is fully scalable and available to customers of all sizes.

From Carbon Offsetting to Insetting: Real Emissions Reduction

DHL’s GoGreen service provides shippers with the option of climate-neutral shipping through investments in internationally recognized climate protection projects to offset emissions generated during transport. GoGreen Plus aims to offer real emissions reductions through carbon “insetting,” enabling shippers to replace conventional fossil fuels with sustainable fuels or clean technologies, such as Sustainable Aviation Fuel (SAF), using a book-and-claim approach.

Kathrin Brost, Vice President Global Head of GoGreen Program at DHL Global Forwarding, said: “You don’t need to invest millions to make a difference. Any business can start small, with just a few extra Euros per shipment and without additional effort. This is a major step forward toward enabling more sustainable supply chains at scale.”
