Quarterly environmental statements

Eimskip has published its Q1 2026 Environmental Report, providing an overview of environmental matters across its operations.
 
Eimskip reports a 9% reduction in total greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions over the last twelve months (LTM Q1 2026 compared with LTM Q1 2025). The introduction of this Last Twelve Months KPI provides a more stable view of emission trends, reducing the impact of quarterly fluctuations related to shipping fuel bunkering.
On a year‑on‑year basis, emissions in Q1 2026 decreased by 4% compared to Q1 2025, mainly reflecting the sale of Lagarfoss in 2025. Operationally, the first quarter was challenging, primarily due to adverse weather conditions and mechanical issues with vessels.
 
Waste is down from 382 tons in Q1 2025 to 282 tons in Q1 2026, mostly due to less oil waste. Waste in land operations in Iceland is down 8%. In Q1, Eimskip Denmark begins registering waste in the environmental system, but Denmark is the second-largest office in terms of FTE. 
 
Total waste decreased from 382 tonnes to 282 tonnes, mainly due to a reduction in oil-related waste. Waste generated from land‑based operations in Iceland declined by 8% over the period.
During Q1 2026, Eimskip Denmark began registering waste data in the environmental reporting system. As Denmark represents the Company's second‑largest office in terms of full‑time employees (FTE), this will improve data coverage and comparability going forward.
