Freight emissions

Carbon has a price. Averages have a cost.

Carriers price carbon based on fleet averages. Forwarders add a buffer. By the time the invoice reaches you, you're paying two to three times your actual exposure. Searoutes shows you the gap — shipment by shipment, carrier by carrier, lane by lane.

Trusted by leading freight forwarders, carriers and cargo owners

Your carrier uses an average. Audit them.

Vessel-level ETS, not fleet average
Your carrier calculates ETS on fleet average emissions. Searoutes calculates it on the vessel that carried your cargo. The difference is your overcharge baseline.
Surcharge audit by lane
Compare what each carrier charges against actual ETS exposure on that lane. Identify which carriers are charging a fair pass-through and which are not.
Portfolio exposure, not samples
Run the audit across your full shipment history. Quantify total ETS overcharge in dollars, by carrier, by lane, by quarter.
