To dramatically lower its greenhouse gas emissions from maritime logistics, Maersk welcomes Flying Tiger Copenhagen as another client. Beginning in 2024, Flying Tiger Copenhagen will transport all of its ocean freight under Maersk’s care using the ECO Delivery solution.
Customers of Maersk can handle ocean transports entirely with certified green fuels with low (65-80%) to very low (80-95%) GHG emissions over their life cycle compared to fossil fuels.
In Maersk’s fleet of container ships, these fuels are taking the place of traditional fossil fuels. A certificate attesting to the proportional savings in greenhouse gas emissions is given to the clients.
When comparing the lifecycle emissions of these seaborne transportation methods to that of traditional fossil fuel use, the reduction is greater than 80%.
“We want to be the frontrunners in the green transition of the retail industry and do our part to pass on a better globe to future generations. We want to offer affordable products which are good for the environment and ultimately end dependency on virgin fossil materials and fuels. With ECO Delivery, we have found an efficient solution for avoiding emissions from our maritime logistics and are pleased to have a like-minded partner at our side here in Maersk.”
“It’s great to see retail companies like Flying Tiger Copenhagen being among the pioneers and largest users of our ECO Delivery Ocean solution to reduce their greenhouse gas footprint from their logistics activities, and it’s an even greater pleasure to see such a close partner as Flying Tiger Copenhagen joining the growing group of Maersk customers transporting 100% of their ocean cargo with Maersk under ECO Delivery.”
