## The benefits of marine biofuels

Not only does the world benefit from sustainable shipping, but so does your organization. Start sailing on biofuels today and become a green leader. A brief summary of your benefits: improve your fleet performance, achieve maximum sustainability scores and meet emission legislation without high investments.

Last but not least, sustainable shipping gives you an advantage over competitors that still solely sail on fossil fuels. Sustainable operations play an increasingly important role in winning tenders and connecting with greenhearted clients.

GoodFuels introduced the award-winning GoodShipping Program in 2017. The program evolved into a [separate company](https://www.goodshipping.com/?hsLang=en) in 2018 and is the worlds’ first sustainable shipping initiative that offers companies – worldwide and of all sizes – the opportunity to make container shipments less polluting by offering a way to change the fuel mix. With lighthouse clients such IKEA, Heineken, and Tony Chocolonely, [GoodShipping](https://www.goodshipping.com/?hsLang=en) empowers freight owners to take control over their transport emissions. By enabling freight owners to indirectly choose biofuels for their shipments, GoodShipping accelerates the change of the marine fuel mix from dirty fossil fuels to sustainable low carbon biofuels.
