Navigating the complexities of logistics often means considering the environmental impact of your shipments. Our updated system now features enhanced tools to help you incorporate CO₂ emissions data directly into your shipping quotations, offering more transparency and control over your logistics operations.

Learn how to use the CO₂ emissions tool when selecting rates to quote with. After you’ve filled in the details and searched for rates as usual, you’ll see the new CO₂ Information icon in the results section, providing quick access to emissions details. Move your mouse over it to see more information. 

Click on the icon to expand the results panel for a comprehensive overview of the emissions for the selected origin and destination. 

Detailed itinerary and emissions information

You can also select multiple origin and destination airports when creating quotations. For example, choose both Barcelona and Madrid as origins and include several destinations if necessary. Our system then creates comprehensive itineraries for each lane combination, ensuring detailed rate and emission information is available for every origin-destination pair.


Hover your mouse over the CO₂ Information icon to see an overview of each lane’s information. Click on See details to expand the results panel for each one. 

CO₂ information within quotes

After you’ve selected your rates and saved your quotation, a checkbox under the General tab will allow you to select whether the CO₂ emissions details are included in the quote PDF file.

When this box has been checked, the emissions information is displayed in the PDF for all lanes within the rates selected.

By leveraging these new features, you can enhance your logistics management process and meet growing demands for sustainability in freight operations. Make more informed, environmentally-conscious shipping decisions with ease and precision. If you have any questions, start a conversation with us.
