MIAMI—DHL Global Forwarding, the air and ocean freight specialist within Deutsche Post DHL Group, is the first forwarder in the industry to launch a new green service that allows customers to opt for carbon efficient ocean freight, which best fits their transport needs. Available immediately, the new Green Danmar service – offered through Danmar Lines, DHL’s own NVOCC (Non-Vessel Operating Common Carrier) – enables customers to select a carrier for full container shipping, which is over 5 percent more carbon efficient than the industry average. In addition, they have the choice to combine this service with DHL’s offsetting solution and turn their consignment into a CO₂ free shipment. Environmentally conscious customers now have the option to further improve ocean freight carbon efficiency, and thus come one step closer to achieving their CO₂ reduction goals.
