ROSE partners with Vroon to drive sustainability effort

Jul 29, 2024

We are proud to share that Vroon, a leading name in international shipping markets, has selected ROSE as its official sustainability-management platform. The partnership is set for a minimum duration of three years.

About Vroon

Established in 1890, Vroon has evolved from a family-owned business to a global organisation, with headquarters in the Netherlands and vessels operating worldwide. The company’s fleet of 65 vessels and workforce of 1,500 professionals provide a diverse range of maritime transportation and management services and solutions. Active in multiple shipping segments, with distinctive brand names and modern fleets, Vroon always maintains its strong commitment to innovation and environmental responsibility.

How ROSE Will Support Vroon

Both teams are on deck and have begun collaborating. Here's how ROSE will empower Vroon:

  • Double materiality assessment (DMA): Vroon will be guided by our dedicated sustainability expert to navigate through value-chain mapping, Impact Risk Opportunities (IRO) and thresholds setting.

  • Data collection: Drawing on the results of the DMA, we'll derive from the thousands of European Sustainability Reporting Standards (ESRS) data points the disclosure requirements that are applicable for Vroon.

  • Carbon footprint calculation: In the maritime transport industry, scope 1 represents the largest part of the corporate carbon footprint (CCF).

  • Long-term continuous improvement: Vroon will leverage the platform to set goals, break them down into concrete actions, and monitor progress in real-time.

Vroon’s unique strengths for a successful Partnership

  • Established data-collection and reporting culture: Vroon's existing practices of logging fuel consumption and operational data will seamlessly integrate with ROSE, enabling efficient environmental impact tracking.

  • Exemplary health and safety practices: Life at sea is by nature dangerous. Vroon has implemented very high standards in workforce health and safety that will need to be reported on in line with the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) framework. 

  • Resource commitment: Vroon is dedicating time and human resources to ensuring the project’s success, paving the way for long-term tangible improvements.

A quote from Alain de Blok, Vroon CFO:

ʺSustainability has gained a prominent role within Vroon in recent years. It is a key factor in how we do business, is reflected in our Vision and Mission, and is an integral part of our Core Values. The new cooperation with ROSE demonstrates a further commitment to achieving our targets in this area. ROSE is assisting us in better assessing our company’s impact, risks and opportunities in the area of sustainability."
