If your business is committed to cutting CO2, a single switch can make a significant impact

With an easy fuel switch, you can reduce up to 84% of your ocean freight emissions directly within your supply chain. You can cut emissions on one trade lane, multiple, or all — it’s up to you. 

We take care of the rest, tracking your reductions and providing a clear monthly overview.

Don’t just plan for tomorrow — take concrete action today.

Why choose ocean biofuel?

Immediate impact: Start cutting emissions within 24 hours.

Scalable: Easy to add into the whichever trade-lane you want globally.

Easy integration: No operational disruption.

What our customers say
For every ton of CO2 we can reduce from our ocean freight, we can decrease our overall costs by a given factor. With the help of SGL, this project allows us to learn precisely the value of that KPI, which will become a deciding factor when prioritising which routes to decarbonise in the future.​

Save emissions and freight costs

Starting in 2024, the EU Emissions Trading System (EU ETS) requires vessels to purchase emission allowances by charging a price for CO2 emissions that increases annually until it reaches 100% by 2026.

Switching to ocean biofuel reduces the allowances needed, directly cutting compliance costs. 

That’s why ocean biofuel means lower emissions and lower compliance costs.

Ocean biofuel explained

Sustainably sourced
Ocean biofuel is made from certified waste and residue materials, such as used cooking oil and agricultural byproducts, ensuring minimal environmental impact.

Mass balance principle
The "mass balance" principle is a global standard for transparently and practically reducing your ocean freight emissions by deploying Biofuel. Instead of dedicating specific biofuel batches to individual shipments, the "mass balance" system allows biofuels to be blended with traditional fuels and used across a shipping fleet. The amount of biofuel is carefully tracked and accurately allocated on a shipment-level basis in proportion to the commitment made.

Easy integration
Ocean biofuel functions as a drop-in solution, blending effortlessly with existing marine fuel. This means no additional investment is required for vessels to operate efficiently with biofuel.

Real reductions, no offsetting
Unlike carbon offsetting, where emissions are compensated through external projects, ocean biofuel directly reduces CO2 emissions within your supply chain. These reductions are immediate, measurable, and verifiable — contributing directly to your sustainability targets.

2030 is approaching – do you have ambitions to reach?

As part of SBTi, many companies have reduction targets to reach. With only five years remaining, achieving a 50% emission reduction by 2030 requires an annual reduction of 10.9% starting now.

No matter how many teu you are shipping, this is a chance of making a quick impact with a small investment.
