“K” Line has set a long-term environment policy, “K” Line Environmental Vision 2050, which the main goal is to minimize environmental risks of our business. Based on our above policy, “K” Line has been implementing fuel efficiency for our operating vessels, constructing eco-friendly vessels, expanding the aggregate of the GHG emission data by data collection system called “Eco-track”, and obtaining verification for the GHG emission data from an independent third party for higher reliability and transparency. These results have received credit for our counter-measures towards climate change, and the attitude of considering environmental issues as our management goals.
“It is our honor to receive such an outstanding result this year. We will continue our efforts to satisfy the expectations of our stakeholders and gain trust so that we can again be selected next year as well,” said Capt. Eiji Kadono, the Senior Managing Executive Officer in charge of Marine Sector, Technical and Environmental Affairs Unit.

“K” Line Group, as one of the top shipping companies, will continue searching for businesses where more people around the world can contribute to minimize the environmental risks and pursue higher efficiency in the shipping industry which leads to improving corporate value.
