Schuon transports around 7,200 full loads per year for Saint-Gobain. This
corresponds to a reduction of around 90 percent compared to conventional diesel. The big advantage: HVO100 can be used directly and without investment with Schuon's modern vehicle fleet and can be refueled using the existing tank infrastructure. It can even be blended with fossil diesel. Schuon obtains the fuel from Fritz Wahr Energie GmbH & Co KG in neighboring Nagold.

HVO100: No separate supply infrastructure required

"The German government's decision to put HVO100 on the open market
was more than overdue. We have been using this sustainable fuel in Hungary

The big advantage compared to electric or hydrogen trucks is that

"Another milestone in the green logistics strategy"

Alexander Schuon, Managing Director of Alfred Schuon GmbH, said:
