AP Møller Maersk has pledged to be the responsible logistics partner of choice for the chemical industry. Maersk’s bold transition to environmentally sustainable logistics and supply chain management will cover all areas of operations: from sea and air to rail and road. This transition will offer solid, strength-in-depth support to customers who are either embarking on or have reached a critical stage of their own decarbonisation journeys. Maersk has pledged to decarbonise its entire business by 2040. This updated commitment coincides with Maersk’s aim to become the end-to-end integrator of container logistics and follows a series of investments to stay at the forefront of sustainable logistics; including new technologies, new fuels, and new vessels. To date, the chemical industry has primarily focused on reducing Scope 1 and 2 emissions – those that are directly controlled by the company itself, such as production and operation emissions. Looking forward, it is clear that the industry is shifting focus to also include Scope 3 emissions (i.e. company supply chains) and that involves supply chain management. Maersk has been honing its offerings so that the company can be integral to the reduction of Scope 3 emissions for their partners.
