CMA CGM and DSV strengthen their partnership to accelerate low-carbon shipping through ACT+

CMA CGM

Marseille – Tuesday, October 13, 2026

  • DSV chooses CMA CGM�s ACT+ low-carbon shipping solution to support a targeted reduction of 12,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions over two years
  • The agreement reflects the shared commitment of CMA CGM and DSV to accelerating the decarbonization of global supply chains
  • ACT+ enables up to 83% CO2 emissions reductions through the use of low-carbon fuels, including second-generation UCOME-based biofuels

CMA CGM and DSV have signed an agreement under which DSV will use CMA CGM�s ACT+ low-carbon shipping solution to support a targeted reduction of 12,000 tonnes of CO2 emissions over two years. These emissions reductions will be achieved through the use of low-carbon fuels, namely second-generation UCOME-based biofuels.

As part of its commitment to achieving Net Zero Carbon by 2050, CMA CGM has developed ACT+, its range of low-carbon transport solutions designed to help customers reduce their CO₂ emissions. Through this agreement, DSV will benefit from ACT +, which can help reduce CO₂ emissions by 83% compared to conventional shipping fuel, through the use of low-carbon fuels.

This partnership reinforces the long-standing relationship between CMA CGM and DSV and supports DSVs commitment to reaching net-zero emissions across its own operations and value chain by 2050. It also reflects a growing market trend, with DSV joining an increasing number of leading companies choosing or renewing their commitment to ACT+ as part of their decarbonization strategies.

A pioneer in the decarbonization of maritime transport, CMA CGM was the first shipping company to make a large-scale commitment to LNG propulsion for ultra-large container vessels, following a strategic decision taken by Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Rodolphe Saad� in 2017. This commitment led to the delivery in 2020 of the CMA CGM Jacques Saad�, the world�s first 23,000-TEU LNG-powered container ship. Since then, CMA CGM has continued to accelerate its transition, launching ACT with CMA CGM+ in 2020 and, in 2026, the CMA CGM NOTRE DAME, the largest containership currently operating under the French flag and the first in a series of ten new-generation 24,212-TEU LNG-powered vessels. By 2031, CMA CGM expects to operate around 200 dual-fuel LNG and methanol-powered vessels capable of using low-carbon energies. These initiatives are part of CMA CGM�s broader decarbonization strategy, which aims to achieve Net Zero Carbon by 2050 through improved energy efficiency, the accelerated adoption of low-carbon energies and close collaboration with customers, suppliers and industry stakeholders.

�At DSV, reducing emissions across global supply chains requires strong collaboration and scalable solutions. Through our partnership with CMA CGM and the use of the ACT+ solution, we are expanding access to lower-carbon shipping options for our customers. This agreement reflects our shared commitment to advancing lower-carbon transport and helping customers achieve their sustainability goals,� said Michael Hollstein, DSV, SVP Global Ocean Product.

Amandine PAULET, Vice President and Deputy Chief Commercial Officer, CMA CGM, said, �Our partnership demonstrates how strong collaboration drives more resilient and sustainable logistics, while delivering high-performance solutions for our customers. We are proud to do so with DSV - together, building the future of shipping.�
