DACHSER showcases its digitalized integrated logistics solutions at ITAP Singapore

With the motto “Optimal Fulfilment Through Integrated Connectivity”, DACHSER Singapore exhibited at the industrial tradeshow with a Virtual Reality (VR) station and presented its IT capabilities at the Sandbox presentations platform.

Frank Stadus, Managing Director Air & Sea Logistics Singapore, led the DACHSER team at the Industrial Transformation Asia Pacific 2019.

In October, DACHSER Singapore participated as an exhibitor at the Industrial Transformation Asia Pacific (ITAP) 2019  for the second consecutive year. ITAP is the Asian counterpart to the iconic Hannover Messe, a leading industrial tradeshow and the region’s premier event for promoting Industry 4.0. This year’s exhibition attracted more than 18,000 attendees from 55 countries and 350 exhibitors from 30 countries.

Industry 4.0, originated from Germany, is now adopted worldwide at varying stages of implementation. With Singapore and Germany facing similar challenges such as an ageing workforce, industrial automation is one way to overcome such challenges, and improve productivity

With interconnectivity being a key theme at the event, the DACHSER booth was aptly themed “Optimal Fulfilment Through Integrated Connectivity”. DACHSER Singapore positioned itself at the event as the only logistics service provider, served as a representation of the interaction between integrated supply chain solutions and industry 4.0 within the context of the global value chain.

Visitors got to know DACHSER by visual tools and informative presentations

The Virtual Reality (VR) station at the DACHSER booth drew some crowds and provided an opportunity for the team to present DACHSER’s contract logistics capabilities. Booth visitors were curious to experience and interact with our virtual warehouse space.

At the “Sandbox” presentations platform, Frank Stadus, Managing Director Air & Sea Logistics Singapore, led the DACHSER team with Katharina Klaeser, Regional Key Account Manager, and Sunanda Dutta, Inside Sales from the local sales team to present the topics of DACHSER’s IT capabilities. The focus of the presentation was the in-house built homogeneous IT landscape which provides a digitalized and transparent platform for data exchange, and at the same time offers reliability in terms of  IT security.

Stadus believed that DACHSER’s participation at ITAP is a commitment to expanding the business and increasing its presence within the Asia Pacific, a region with a rapid growth in technology. “Our dedicated local team had the opportunity to not only network with professionals from a broad range of industries such as electronics  and biotechnology, among others, but also to present DACHSER as a reliable partner in providing integrated logistics solutions,” Stadus concluded the success of the tradeshow.

Emissions calculations with DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics

For several years now, DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics has been compiling so-called carbon footprints (calculation of the CO₂ balance sheet) of freight transports and summarizing the individual transport-related calculations in emissions reports. The preparation of these reports is a value-added service offered to DACHSER Air & Sea Logistics customers worldwide and is tailored to the individual needs of the customer. In general, primary energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and various air pollutants can be calculated at consignment level. This can also be broken down to individual transport sections. In this way, transport-related carbon footprints can be calculated for complete transport chains, including the pre-carriage, main carriage and onward carriage.

DACHSER uses an emissions calculator for the calculations, which meets all the requirements of the European standard for calculating greenhouse gas emissions from passenger and goods transport (EN 16258). Another advantage of the emissions calculator is that the calculation processes are automated via an XML interface to our Othello transport management system. This allows the emission reports to be generated completely automatically.

In general, the emission calculation in the first step serves to determine the primary energy consumption, greenhouse gas emissions and air pollutants emitted by transports. However, this information is essential for deriving necessary measures to reduce emissions. Therefore, in addition to the pure calculations, it is also important to be able to provide our customers with further bases for decisions on emission reduction. For this reason, customers receive simulated calculations of alternative means of transport and bundling strategies on request.

In addition to a comparison of the classic means of transport by air and sea, the alternative of rail transport (see DACHSER Rail Services) is also highlighted for customers. 

If you have any questions about our emissions calculator, please contact your DACHSER contact person.
