Hapag-Lloyd has entered a cooperation with IKEA Supply Chain Operations to decarbonise the Hapag-Lloyd container shipments originating from Asia, marking an important step towards a more sustainable maritime industry.
<\/strong>
For the period March 2024 to February 2025, both companies have agreed to use Hapag-Lloyd\u2019s highest product option for biofuels \u201cShip Green 100\u201d, which relies on waste- and residue-based biofuel instead of conventional marine fuel oil. The expected result for IKEA during this period is a CO2<\/sub> emission reduction of around 100,000 tonnes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cIKEA stands as one of our valued customers, known for its unwavering commitment to sustainability. By joining forces, we are reducing CO2<\/sub>e emissions significantly\u201d, said Danny Smolders, Managing Director Global Sales at Hapag-Lloyd<\/strong>. \u201cShip Green is an important aspect of our decarbonisation journey and brings us one step closer to our goal of net-zero fleet operations by 2045.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The IKEA goal is to reduce the relative GHG emissions from their product transportation by 70% by 2030 and to only use zero emission heavy duty vehicles and ocean vessels by 2040.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n

\u201cIt\u2019s through efforts like this one that we can reduce immediate emissions from ocean shipping in the short-term\u201d, says Dariusz Mroczek, Category Area Transport Manager, IKEA Supply Chain Operations<\/strong>. \u201cHowever, biofuel is not the ultimate solution and we need to continue to collaborate to make the necessary shift toward zero emission fuels and technologies.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

This partnership represents a significant step forward in the maritime industry, where collaboration and innovation intersect to create a greener, more sustainable future for global shipping. Both Hapag-Lloyd and IKEA are committed to leading the way in environmentally conscious practices, setting a benchmark for the industry.

Hapag-Lloyd has launched the Ship Green product to offer its customers emission-reduced ocean transports. Based on biofuel, Hapag-Lloyd\u2019s customers can choose between 100%, 50% or 25% CO2<\/sub>e emission avoidance. Ship Green is available for all shipments, including standard, reefer, hardtop, or tank equipment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
