Latest innovations
Milestone: E-truck range travel
ELFLEIN is actively promoting emission-free transport solutions — both in local and long-distance transport. A highlight: On April 29, 2025, a MAN e-truck successfully completed a 370 km long long-haul journey from Regensburg to Leipzig — without intermediate charging, steered by Rüdiger Elflein himself. As a result, ELFLEIN saves around 62 tons of CO₂ annually on this route — a further step towards climate-friendly logistics.
Longer distances with battery-electric trucks can be carried out reliably
- First e-truck trip over 370 km without intermediate charging
- 62 tons of CO₂ savings per year on the route
- Use of modern MAN e-trucks
Euroschwanenhals
Travel more efficiently — with a tailor-made Eurotrailer. ELFLEIN developed an innovative transport concept for a customer to reduce trips and CO₂ emissions. The specially designed Eurotrailer enables large, lightweight containers to be stacked twice — and thus noticeably increases transport efficiency.
Capacity increase of over 66%
- Conventional trailer: 3 containers per transport
- Specially developed trailer from ELFLEIN: 5 containers per transport
- Reduction of daily shipments from 59 to 35
- Saving 24 trips per day
- CO₂ savings: around 71 tons per year
thermal drones
We use thermal drones with high-resolution infrared sensors to detect overheating at an early stage. They automatically monitor storage zones, identify critical temperature increases at an early stage — and thus effectively minimize fire risks. Thanks to high-resolution infrared sensors, temperature deviations can be detected at an early stage — even before visible damage or smoke develops.
Increasing safety when handling lithium-ion batteries.
- Early detection of critical temperature rises
- Reducing fire risk through preventive measures
- Automated and documentable control flights
- Quick response through visual alerts in case of deviations
- Increased efficiency compared to manual testing methods
