In this article, we explore the importance of driving sustainability in chemical logistics and share some strategies for how to do so.

Sustainability with a chemical twist

To connect sustainability with the chemical industry, we need to consider the unique challenges and opportunities in chemical logistics. Some key points to think about:

Tank container design: our tank storage are designed to improve the efficiency of chemical transportation when it comes to the quantity of the product being transported.

Shipping your product in ISO tanks helps to reduce your environmental footprint as they can be cleaned and reused hundreds of times. The risk of product spills and leakage is also reduced due to its impact-tested construction and insulation, and avoiding CO2 emissions generated during transport compared to drums or flexi tanks (due to its flexibility in carrying different type of cargoes). The design of our  tank also allows its intermodal transportation on long routes which can help to reduce carbon emissions.

Hovo Trans bv is seeking discussion with the iso container manufacturers in areas of improvement to benefit further on reducing CO2 emissions or increasing circularity. Please contact us at info@hovotransbv.com

Alternative fuels and modes of transport: Exploring alternative fuels and modes of transport can significantly reduce the CO2 footprint of chemical shipping.

Collaborative efforts: Collaboration within the logistics supply chain will lead to shared sustainability initiatives and best practices and as such to a lesser footprint.
