Elflein wins VerkehrsRundschau Innovation Award 2026 in the environmental protection category

The “Euroschwanenhals” transport concept was honored. The solution shows how intelligent technology can be used to increase transport capacity and reduce CO₂ sustainably. The project thus exemplifies Elflein's claim to combine economic efficiency and ecological responsibility in logistics.

The impact of the concept is clearly measurable in everyday operations: The transport capacity per trip increases by 150%, while at the same time the number of daily shipments is reduced from 135 to 54 trips. These results in CO₂ savings of around 210 tons per year.

The Award Underlines Elflein's innovative strength and confirms the way in which logistics solutions are developed not only efficiently but also sustainably.

“For us, the VerkehrsRundschau Innovation Award is a valuable confirmation of our work. The “Euroschwanenhals” shows how a practical idea can be turned into a solution with concrete ecological benefits.”

Elflein would like to thank all employees and project participants who have contributed to the development and successful implementation.
