CO2 and energy savings

In 2023, the Hupac Group's continental transport caused CO2 emissions of 138,000 tonnes. According to Ecotransit, this represents a saving of 89% or 1.1 million tonnes of CO2 compared to pure road transport. The estimated value for the Hupac Group's total transport is 1.4 million tonnes of CO2.

 

Energy consumption is also an important indicator for the carbon footprint of combined transport. In 2023, the Hupac Intermodal network saved 13 billion megajoules compared to road transport. The reduction effect is 74% compared to road transport.

 

CO2 certification for customers

Silent freight wagons

Hupac's wagon fleet is noise-reduced. All wagons are fitted with brakes made of a low-noise synthetic resin composite. New wagons are preferably procured with disc brakes, a braking system that further reduces noise emissions.

Book shipments from your smartphone? With WOLF you can!

WOLF – the new Hupac app – lets you manage all phases of combined transport, from booking to collection, from tracking & tracing to info on any hiccups along the way.

 

WOLF can be accessed on any device (PC, smartphone and tablets) and using any browser (Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Internet Explorer, etc.).

 

WOLF, acronym of Web Oriented Logistics Framework, is the portal that gathers all the data and applications our customers need to manage their shipments in a simple and fast way. After registering and logging in, customers can:
> specify who, within their own organisation, shall access the various functions
> book shipments
> create standard forms for routine bookings
> access tracking & tracing tools
> view shipments at the terminal
> specify the driver authorised to collect a shipment from the Busto terminal
> view shipment statistics.

 

WOLF is a powerful platform for intermodal traffic and will replace Minosweb, the current booking system, by the 31 March 2018.


Data integration system Ediges remains unchanged.


In addition to basic customer service functions, WOLF also offers a series of additional functions, such as, for instance, a Hupac contacts address book and loading diagrams for each wagon types. There will also be many functions for Hupac’s partners (terminals, railway undertakings and wagon workshops) letting them manage traffic flows more easily.

 

Having already undergone an initial trial period over the last six months, WOLF is now ready to be fully launched for all our customers.
