Manitou Group commits to decarbonized international logistics

Manitou Group is shipping its machines to Canada and the United States for the first time aboard the Neoliner Origin, an innovative sailing cargo ship. This vessel is undertaking its maiden transatlantic voyage from Montoir-de-Bretagne, France, to Baltimore, United States. This solution directly addresses the group’s ambition to reduce its emissions through decarbonized logistics.

Manitou Group was one of the first shippers to commit alongside Neoline.

We are proud to have stood by Neoline since the inception of this project and to position ourselves as a key player in this new era of commercial maritime transport. This partnership aligns with our LIFT strategic plan, which involves utilizing more sustainable solutions across our entire value chain. With 82% of our turnover generated from exports, the Neoliner Origin constitutes a very strong alternative to conventional cargo vessels.
