Silver medal for CSR efforts


The ÖBB Rail Cargo Group (RCG) has been awarded the CSR “silver” status by Ecovadis, an international rating platform that meanwhile analyses up to 50,000 companies with regard to their corporate social responsibility (CSR).

 

ÖBB RCG made a particularly good impression with its newly developed TransANT platform wagon. The 20% lighter undercarriage allows more cargo volumes per transport with the same axle load. Compared to standard wagons, this revolutionary technology means that fewer trains per year will be required for the same amount of freight. This saves energy and thus reduces emissions.

 

Furthermore, the company impressed the rating platform by retrofitting the freight wagons with low-noise braking systems. (ben)
