At Transglory, we strive to reduce our environmental impact through sustainable practices, such as route optimization and the use of clean technologies. We are committed to minimizing our carbon footprint and promoting more responsible and efficient transportation.
What is the carbon footprint?
The carbon footprint is the total amount of greenhouse gases emitted as a direct or indirect result of an individual, organization, event, or product. To calculate the carbon footprint, it is necessary to consider all aspects of daily life, such as transportation, food, and consumption, to obtain approximate emission data.
In a world where global trade connects all nations, maritime transport plays a crucial role. Every day, thousands of ships cross the oceans, carrying products from one continent to another. But this vast movement comes with an environmental cost: the carbon footprint.
Why is it important to calculate the carbon footprint?
The carbon footprint in transportation is crucial for reducing the environmental impact of logistics operations. Knowing and managing these emissions not only helps to comply with regulations but also improves operational efficiency and corporate reputation.

Calculating the carbon footprint in maritime transport involves considering several factors: the type of fuel used, the vessel’s efficiency, the distance traveled, and the cargo carried. Maritime consolidators play a key role here; by maximizing load efficiency, they can reduce emissions per ton transported.
