Zim joins “Move to -15” coalition

ZIM Integrated Shipping Services Ltd. has joined the “Move to -15” coalition, a cross-industry initiative aimed at reducing emissions in the cold chain sector.

The coalition seeks to raise the standard temperature for frozen cargo from -18°C to -15°C, a change that could prevent up to 17.7 million metric tons of CO2 emissions annually.

ZIM offers an advanced fleet of reefer containers, supported by its exclusive ZIMonitor service, which ensures real-time monitoring to maintain optimal cold chain conditions.

The company’s involvement in the “Move to -15” coalition is aligned with its broader commitment to sustainability in shipping.

David Arbel, Executive Vice President and Chief Operating Officer at ZIM, commented: “As part of ZIM’s ESG commitment, we’re advancing sustainable, cutting-edge solutions to lower environmental impact in global shipping.

“We’re proud to join a coalition that will make cold chain logistics eco-friendlier and more cost-effective.”

The “Move to -15” initiative is expected to make a significant contribution to reducing the environmental footprint of the cold chain logistics industry, which is critical for global trade.

In November 2024, ZIM unveiled the integration of Hoopo’s hoopoSense Solar trackers into its smart container services.
