DP World is launching Insetify, a dedicated carbon inset trial for ocean freight forwarding customers in Belgium, Portugal and Sweden, to deliver immediate, measurable reductions in customers’ Scope 3 emissions across key European trade lanes. Starting 1 April, credits will be applied automatically to customers booking ocean freight forwarding services with DP World in Belgium, Portugal and Sweden, meaning qualifying importers and exporters will receive carbon credits directly every quarter.
This new trial builds on DP World’ s ongoing Carbon Inset Programme in the UK ports of Southampton and London Gateway. Launched in January 2025, the UK programme registered more than 250,000 TEUs and issued more than 9,000 tCO2e of Carbon Inset Credits. Unlike traditional offsets which fund
projects like tree planting, carbon insets reduce emissions within the value chain by using lower-carbon fuels or more efficient transport, helping customers tackle their Scope 3 emissions.
John Trenchard, VP, Sustainable International Supply Chains, Europe says:“ Providing customers with multiple solutions to enable the decarbonisation of supply chains is important to DP World. As part of our proactive approach to working alongside clients, we are recognising an immediate focus on inland activity and a high level of residual emissions within ocean legs.
“ The Insetify trial allows for a pragmatic approach to managing these residual emissions as part of a longer‐term, holistic plan. I would encourage organisations to explore how carbon insets can be used as part of intentional progress.”
