0 Km (zero Km) certamente il concetto è ecosostenibile, e rotaia o zero KM è la chiave di 'viaggia'.
Beatriz Great!

Thanks for that Antonio and what a coincidence ;) , we have to get talking ;) Very helpful
Beatriz I do Portuguese for this PRIMO ESPORTATORE DI PASTA NEL MONDO.
In reference to environmental impact, they also say:
Da qualche anno Pasta ZZZZ ha convertito su rotaia il viaggio ripetuto che la semola di grano duro affronta, partendo dal Sud dell’Italia, per arrivare negli stabilimenti di XXXX e WWWW. Viaggio che fino a qualche anno fa veniva effettuato del tutto via gomma. ZZZZ ha calcolato che il solo percorso XXX-ZZZZZ e ritorno via treno toglie dalle strade 3.200 camion l’anno. Tradotto in benefici per l’ambiente, significa impiantare 649 ettari di bosco, pari a circa 325 mila alberi.

is transported

That's how I'd say it.
Some companies for transporting their raw material are switching to environment friendly transport. Many to material produced closer to their production sites.

travels

If you are experienced in marketing language you shouldn't have any difficulty in expressing the concept. It refers to the 0 km concept of eating what is produced locally or at least in this case that the durum wheat is sourced locally, so it doesn't have to travel far, therefore it has a low impact on the environment
