Procureship and ReFlow Unveil EmissionPassport to Tackle Shipping’s Scope 3 Challenge
Cut through the green tape

Procureship, a digital procurement platform for the maritime sector, has teamed up with Copenhagen-based climate data firm ReFlow to launch EmissionPassport, a new tool designed to help shipping companies measure and report carbon emissions linked to their supply chains.
The move comes as ship owners and operators prepare for stricter climate disclosure rules, including the EU’s Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). These regulations require companies to account for so-called “Scope 3” emissions — indirect emissions produced across supply chains, such as from the manufacture and delivery of goods used on board ships.
Tracking these emissions is no small task. Shipping companies buy thousands of products each year across multiple vessels and from hundreds of suppliers. Many suppliers have little or no emissions data, creating a major challenge for procurement teams trying to comply with new standards.
The new EmissionPassport system addresses this by embedding ReFlow’s climate data capabilities directly into the Procureship platform. Using a specialized calculation engine, it provides verified, science-based emissions data without disrupting daily purchasing workflows. While the tool does not dictate buying decisions, it gives managers reliable insights they can use for internal climate assessments and external reporting.
Procureship and ReFlow say the solution will also support industry efforts to create a common standard for emissions reporting through collaboration with the International Marine Purchasing Association (IMPA) and its Maritime Environmental Footprint (IMEF) Initiative.
“With EmissionPassport, we’re giving procurement professionals the data backbone they need to meet regulatory demands and prepare for greener operations,” said Carsten Schmidt, Vice President of Sales at Procureship.
The launch marks another step in shipping’s wider push to reduce its climate impact and build transparency across global supply chains.
