Elflein — your driving force for more sustainable transport.
A transport concept can pursue different sustainability approaches, depending on whether it is climate-friendly or climate-neutral.
Climate-friendly logistics reduces emissions as much as possible. With ELFLEIN, you can move step by step from a climate-friendly to a climate-neutral concept by continuously strengthening measures to reduce CO₂.

Alternative drives
Elflein is a pioneer in sustainable drives and consistently uses BIO-LNG, HVO and e-trucks. 25% of the fleet has already been modernized to ensure low-emission and sustainable mobility.
E-TRUCK
ELFLEIN has been one of the leading providers of transport for companies in the paper and printing industry for many years. Special trailers with appropriate protective equipment for new paper and sliding floor vehicles for the delivery of waste paper give our customers process reliability.
HVO
ELFLEIN uses HVO fuel at its own and third-party filling stations to sustainably reduce CO₂ emissions. Without any technical adjustments, HVO impresses with its high compatibility with existing diesel engines.
BIO LNG
The automotive sector demands top performance in subcontracting. ELFLEIN special trailers: highly variable, flexible & traceable. Direct production supply — without a forklift, directly to the assembly line.
Semitrailer
Standard dimensions in m: 13.60 x 2.48 x 2.60
Mega dimensions in m: 13.60 x 2.48 x 2.97
Room height-optimised special vehicle
ELFLEIN uses special vehicles that are developed individually according to customer requirements. With optimal transport concepts and equipment, trips are reduced and the CO₂ balance is sustainably improved. Trailer height: 3.5 m
Paper trailer/sliding floor trailer
ELFLEIN uses sliding floor trailers — also known as walking floor trailers — specifically in the paper industry. For efficient and gentle transportation of sensitive products such as waste paper bales, pulp or paper rolls — especially when loading and unloading at locations without a tipping device.
Long truck
Elflein relies on modern and efficient transport solutions and has all Long truck types from type 1 to type 4 in the vehicle fleet. Thanks to their extended load units, these vehicles enable higher transport capacity, reduce emissions and help reduce traffic congestion. Elflein uses them specifically for sustainable and flexible logistics — particularly in automotive sector.
Type 5 long truck
ELFLEIN uses a specially designed Type 5 long truck — the so-called “speeding Franconian forests.” Compared to others, it has a significantly higher payload: up to 24 tons instead of 18 tons — ideal for heavier goods while maintaining efficiency.
Refrigerated semitrailer
ELFLEIN uses refrigerated trailers for the safe and temperature-controlled transport of perishable goods. In this way, quality and freshness are maintained. Partitions can easily be installed — even afterwards. Dimensions in m: 13.30 x 2.45 x 2.65
Jumbo articulated hoist
Elflein puts on Jumbo vehicles with 7.7 m inner length per load unit as standard — and also offers tailor-made solutions for special transport requirements.
Dimensions: 7.70 x 2.48 x 2.97
Refrigerated cable
Elflein uses refrigerated unit hoists for temperature-controlled transport, using the flexibility of maneuverability. The vehicles are individually adapted to customer requirements.
Dimensions: 7.30 x 2.45 x 2.65
Eurotrailer
Elflein uses Eurotrailer with extended loading area, which offer more load volume and therefore for more efficient transport with reduced CO₂ emissions worry.
Dimensions: 14.9 x 2.48 x 2.97
Euroschwanenhals
It combines the advantages of the classic gooseneck trailer and its lowering with the Eurotrailer loading area of 14.9 loading meters (instead of 13.6 loading meters). Dimensions in m: 14.9 x 2.48 x 3.2
The right transport mix
In order to meet our requirements for sustainable transport, we rely on a wide variety of different types of trucks. From efficient standard vehicles to special lowliners for the automotive industry to tailor-made special equipment — our fleet is designed to provide the optimal, environmentally friendly solution for every transport requirement. With cutting-edge technology and innovative vehicle concepts, we are thus making an active contribution to greater sustainability in freight transport.
