"As a vital link in many supply chains, LeShuttle Freight has freighted goods for nearly 30 years under the Eurotunnel brand. Today, we carry 25% of the goods entering the UK thanks to the speed, ease, and flexibility of our service. Paramount to us are the truck drivers who remain our top priority.

With up to six departures per hour, each truck emits 12 times less greenhouse gas than travelling by ferry. Committed to lower carbon, we remain the only cross channel operator to publish an annual carbon footprint and recently launched an online emissions calculator to enable our customers to calculate their CO2 savings. We truly believe we can lead the way in environmentally friendly goods transportation." LeShuttle Freight
