To launch this project, the company has involved the delegations of the different countries to which it exports and which are responsible for transportation. Specifically, on each trip to Bingen (Germany), 1.6 tons of CO2 are reduced per trip, which represents a 61% reduction in emissions. In the case of Torun (Poland), 3.86 tons of CO2 are reduced per trip, with a 75% reduction in emissions; and in the case of Willebroek (Belgium), 1.72 tons of CO2 per trip, with a reduction of 59.2%.

Freixenet Group has promoted this project following the pilot test carried out in 2021 together with In-Move by Railgrup, the Clúster Vitivinícola Català, Innovi, and the Committee of Multimodal Services. At that time, 11,000 litres of cava were shipped from the municipality of Sant Sadurní d‘Anoia in Barcelona to Alsheim in Germany, in a multimodal route of 1,434 kilometres, out of which 1,334 were made by rail. Tenalach Consulting was in charge of the operation, which allowed carrying out the traceability and control of the temperature of the product throughout the journey.
