Madrid\/Copenhagen \u2013 Inditex, the parent company of renowned fashion brands such as Zara and Massimo Dutti, has joined forces with the freight group Maersk to significantly reduce its overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from maritime logistics. This reduction will be achieved by integrating alternative fuels on all inbound routes with the carrier. Through the ECO Delivery Ocean program, Maersk replaces fossil fuels on its ships with green fuels such as green methanol or second-generation biodiesel derived from waste feedstocks. This initiative is anticipated to result in an estimated reduction of over 80% in GHG emissions compared to conventional sources.<\/p>\n

With ECO Delivery Ocean, Maersk offers customers the opportunity to conduct transports exclusively using certified green fuels for a fixed cost. The corresponding greenhouse gas savings are confirmed to customers through externally verified certificates, and such transports will be exempted from charges under the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS) by Maersk in the future.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis collaboration is a great example of how boosting innovative solutions with dedicated partners is key to fight climate change. Through this joint initiative with Maersk, we are making significant strides in reducing emissions associated with our sea freight. This project aligns with our goal to reach net zero emissions in 2040 and contributes to scale alternative fuels with a significant reduced carbon footprint.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Abel Lopez
Head of Import, Export, and Transport at Inditex<\/p>\n

\u201cWe are proud to have Inditex among our first customers who assign 100% of their Maersk ocean inbound cargo to our ECO Delivery product, which ensures a significant reduction of GHG emissions thanks to green fuels. We know Inditex since long as a very responsibly and sustainably thinking partner and customer and going all the way on their ocean cargo is good news for the environment and climate.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Emilio de la Cruz
Managing Director of Maersk\u2019s Area South West Europe<\/p>\n

Currently, Maersk is witnessing high and dynamic demand for the ECO Delivery product with very low GHG emissions. \u201cMany customers are seeking a solution to reduce their scope 3 emissions, and the first customers are already purchasing this premium solution for their entire cargo under the Maersk Bill of Lading. We are pleased to meet this demand with ECO Delivery on an immediate basis,\u201d adds Emilio de la Cruz.<\/p>\n

Like Inditex, Maersk has set an ambitious climate target to become a net-zero company across all business areas by 2040. In addition to using ECO Delivery for all its ocean cargo under Maersk\u2019s care, Inditex is actively promoting multimodal transport and collaborating on a new rail solution pilot with Maersk, RENFE, and Cepsa in southern Spain, launched earlier this summer. Such close collaborations are essential to achieving our ambitious, mutual decarbonization goals.<\/p>\n
