In Maersk Line we believe container shipping is about creating real and long lasting opportunities and we advocate a balanced, sustainable approach to our business.
Although moving goods by sea is the most energy efficient and environmentally friendly mode of transportation, we acknowledge that our energy consumption and emissions as a container shipping line are significant. Therefore Maersk Line aim to make containerised transportation even more environmentally friendly and cost efficient by continuing to work with and engage all of our stakeholders.
For Maersk Line, protecting the environment is a question of constant care – in the way we use resources, optimise operations and handle waste. Operating vessels in an environmentally sound manner requires a balanced and sustainable approach to long-term economic growth. Our vessels are at the industry forefront in fuel efficiency and implementation of environmentally friendly technologies andwe continue to explore ways to improve.
Our environmental policy is developed and governed by a dedicated department in Maersk Line – Health, Safety, and Environment – and is deeply engrained in the core values of our company.
