Dec, 26, 2025 Posted by Sylvia SchandertWeek 202551
For the third consecutive year, SAAM Towage has obtained the international PAS 2060 certification in Brazil, which recognizes the carbon neutrality of its operations in the country.
In addition to implementing operational actions that reduced the intensity of Scope 1 and Scope 2 emissions, the company purchased carbon credits to offset 100% of these emissions.
“This certification recognizes SAAM’s ongoing commitment to sustainability and environmental responsibility. Achieving this milestone once again demonstrates the consistent alignment of our company’s practices with the highest environmental and climate standards,” said Juliana Soares, Sustainability Coordinator for Brazil.
This progress motivates SAAM to further deepen its efforts in energy efficiency and environmental management, which are part of its Sustainability Strategy and include reducing and offsetting Greenhouse Gas (GHG) emissions by 2030.
“This achievement is possible thanks to the company’s commitment and the dedication of all our employees. Our goal is to continue evolving, explore new ways to reduce our carbon footprint, and inspire other companies to follow the same path,” Soares concluded.
SAAM Towage operates in 18 ports in Brazil, with a fleet of more than 67 tugboats and a workforce of approximately 700 people.
