🚢 Exciting news! We are upsizing 4 of our new vessels on order – making them the largest in the world!   Four of the twelve Shaper Class vessels currently under construction at Jinling Shipyard (Jiangsu) will be increased in size from 9,300 to approximately 11,700 CEUs. This will make them the largest PCTC vessels ever to sail and will play a critical part of our ambition to reduce costs and emissions as part of our net-zero end-to-end. 🌍⚓   These vessels will offer significant savings on fuel and emissions compared to our current fleet, while also providing unparalleled capacity and ramp strength.   The vessels will be the ocean element of the integrated net-zero service we will offer customers from 2027.   📹 Watch the video below where Xavier Leroi, EVP & COO Shipping Services at Wallenius Wilhelmsen, provides further insights. 🔗 Read more in the article here: https://lnkd.in/di88S_fk

🚢🌍 Setting Sail for Sustainability: Our shared journey in decarbonization. Sharing highlights from the GRC Associate Group Meeting in Seoul! On September 10-11, Wallenius Wilhelmsen and industry leaders gathered in Seoul for a pivotal Global RoRo Community (GRC) meeting. This meeting hosted by Smart Freight Centre and GRC members brought together over 100 global participants both online and offline —including major deep-sea RoRo/PTCT operators, classification societies, cargo owners, NGOs and other stakeholders. The meeting in Seoul focused on tackling key challenges like improving GHG emission accounting for deep-sea RoRo shipping. From ballast leg allocations to the latest GLEC framework alignment, every discussion shaped the future of sustainable shipping. ❓Why this matters? The shipping industry is a major contributor to global emissions, and this collective effort is crucial in setting unified standards that ensure fair competition while accelerating decarbonization. By working together, we can drive real change, reduce our environmental footprint, and lead the way in sustainable global trade. 🌍⚓ As we continue this journey, collaboration remains key. Together, we’re driving progress toward a greener future!
