dnata will expand its ground support equipment (GSE) fleet by 800 new units in 2025, based on 2024 long-term global contracts with leading manufacturers. The $210 million agreements secure advanced, low-emission equipment supply to support growth and sustainability goals.
The new units will be deployed across 10 countries, with major allocations to the UAE, Brazil, Italy, USA and Singapore. dnata Airport Operations CEO Clive Sauvé-Hopkins noted: “Our significant fleet investment reflects expansion scale and our commitment to industry-leading operational excellence and sustainability. We accelerate zero-/low-emission tech adoption where infrastructure allows, and partner on solutions where it’s still developing.”
Sustainability is central to dnata’s global fleet strategy, focusing on phasing out diesel for electric, hybrid or hydrogen alternatives. Over 40% of its fleet is electric in key markets (Italy, Switzerland, Netherlands, UK). It also partners with biofuel suppliers and has switched Dubai’s non-electric GSE to biodiesel.
Many new GSE units are on display at the Airport Show (Dubai World Trade Centre, May 6-8).
