Sustainability and maritime transport: Newtral Argentina’s commitment to a greener future

In a world where sustainability has become a fundamental pillar for the global industry, maritime transport, responsible for moving 90% of the world’s goods, plays a key role. At Newtral Argentina, we are committed to reducing the environmental impact of our operations by adopting sustainable practices that allow us to continue providing high-quality services without compromising the future of the planet.

As international trade continues to expand, so do the responsibilities for companies in the logistics sector to implement greener solutions. This post will explore how Newtral Argentina has integrated sustainability into its maritime transport services and how our clients can benefit from a more environmentally responsible approach.

The environmental challenge of maritime transport

Maritime transport is undoubtedly one of the most efficient ways to move large volumes of goods over long distances. However, this sector also has a significant impact on the environment. Some of the main areas affecting sustainability include:

  • CO2 emissions: Although maritime transport is more efficient than other modes of transportation, it still generates a significant amount of greenhouse gas emissions.
  • Fossil fuel consumption: Most ships operate on fossil fuels, contributing to climate change.
  • Marine pollution: Fuel spills, marine debris, and water contamination are recurring problems in the industry.

At Newtral Argentina, we have chosen to take responsibility for mitigating these impacts through a series of initiatives aimed at promoting more sustainable practices in global logistics.

Sustainability strategies at Newtral Argentina

We know that change doesn’t happen overnight, but at Newtral Argentina, we are implementing a series of actions to make our operations more sustainable. Here are some key initiatives we are undertaking:

a) Optimization of maritime routes

One of the main approaches to reducing our environmental impact is route optimization. By collaborating with our partners at major ports around the world, such as Busan and Nhava Sheva, we plan maritime routes that not only reduce transit times but also fuel consumption. This translates to lower CO2 emissions per ton transported.

Thanks to our network of connections and our experience in the industry, we can offer more direct and efficient routes, avoiding unnecessary detours and optimizing transit times, which in turn reduces energy consumption.

b) Cargo consolidation: reducing resource consumption

Cargo consolidation is an excellent option for reducing the environmental impact of maritime transport. Instead of sending half-empty containers, the consolidation service allows for grouping the goods of multiple clients into a single container, maximizing space utilization and reducing the need to use multiple containers and vessels.

This practice is not only beneficial for the environment, but it also results in significant cost savings for our clients. By consolidating cargo, we help reduce the number of ships needed to transport goods, which translates to a lower carbon footprint.

c) Use of smart tracking technologies

Technology also plays a crucial role in our sustainability strategies. At Newtral Argentina, we utilize advanced tracking systems that monitor every stage of the transport process. This not only enhances operational efficiency but also allows us to make real-time adjustments to reduce fuel consumption and avoid delays that could lead to increased emissions.

d) Collaboration with eco-friendly vessels

We are collaborating with partners who are investing in clean technologies, such as eco-friendly vessels. These ships are designed to be more energy-efficient, utilizing alternative fuels and emission reduction technologies such as exhaust gas cleaning systems (scrubbers). These vessels are revolutionizing the industry by operating in a more sustainable manner, and at Newtral Argentina, we are committed to using them whenever possible.

Advantages of working with a sustainable logistics provider

At Newtral Argentina, we believe that sustainability is not just a trend, but a necessity. By working with a logistics provider committed to the environment, our clients also enjoy a number of significant benefits:

  • Improved business reputation: Companies that work with sustainable logistics partners can enhance their brand image and gain the trust of consumers and business partners who value environmental commitment.
  • Long-term cost reduction: Sustainable practices, such as route optimization and cargo consolidation, can lead to significant savings in operational costs. This means that by adopting a more eco-friendly approach, profitability can also be improved.
  • Regulatory compliance: Increasingly, governments are implementing stricter environmental regulations. By working with Newtral Argentina, you can be assured that your logistics operations will comply with international sustainability standards.

Our commitment to the future

At Newtral Argentina, we are committed to continuously improving our sustainable practices as technology advances and new opportunities arise. Our goal is to be leaders in implementing logistics solutions that minimize environmental impact and maximize the efficiency of international operations.

How you can contribute to the sustainability of your supply chain

As a client of Newtral Argentina, you can also take steps to make your supply chain more sustainable. Here are some suggestions:

  • Choose cargo consolidation: If you don’t have enough volume to fill a full container, opt for consolidation to maximize resource usage.
  • Efficient shipping planning: Coordinate your shipments more effectively to avoid urgent needs that require faster and more polluting transportation methods.
  • Constant monitoring: Take advantage of our tracking tools to identify opportunities for improvement in your own logistics processes.

Sustainability is a challenge that we all must embrace, and at Newtral Argentina, we are committed to leading this change in the maritime transport industry. By offering greener and more efficient logistics solutions, we not only help our clients reduce their environmental footprint but also ensure that we are contributing to a more sustainable future for everyone.
