BAX Global was an American international shipping company that was headquartered in Irvine, California, and had other major offices in Australia, Singapore, London, the Netherlands and Toledo, Ohio. The company was a subsidiary of the Burlington Northern Railroad.

In January 2006, BAX Global was acquired by DB Logistics and was integrated with Schenker, the land, sea, and air freight branch of DB Logistics.

DB Logistics is the freight and logistics division of Deutsche Bahn, the State-owned German railway company. In July 2011 Schenker Inc. announced it would give up its airfreight activities and stop the use of the remaining 20 aircraft.
