Sinwa Global, a leading trading company in the maritime industry, faced increasing demands from large shipping companies to provide CO2 emission data on the products they sourced. With sustainability expectations growing, Sinwa needed a solution to remain competitive while meeting compliance requirements.

Large shipping companies required CO2 emission data on the products they sourced from Sinwa. However, as a trading company, Sinwa lacked the necessary data points and expertise to meet these demands.
Without a way to provide accurate emissions data, Sinwa faced the risk of being disqualified from due diligence processes, potentially losing key customers.
ReFlow’s CO2 Product Estimates delivered calculations of CO2e emissions for 350 products supplied by Sinwa Global. By utilizing product weight and emission factors, ReFlow generated transparent emissions data to ensure compliance with maritime sustainability reporting.
Beyond calculations, the project also helped establish guidelines for suppliers on how to calculate and report emissions, aligning with the IMPA IMEF initiative.
Sinwa can now provide emissions data on 60% of its turnover value, allowing them to meet customer expectations and gain a competitive edge over suppliers who cannot offer this information.
By proactively addressing sustainability demands, Sinwa has positioned itself as a forward-thinking partner, enhancing relationships with key clients and opening doors to new opportunities.
"We have been delighted to work with ReFlow on this project, which has secured us a position where we can proactively demonstrate our support for our customers' need for activity-based Scope 3 data. Having this available now allows us to offer added value to our customers. We have a trusted partner to support the validation of methods and data selection, allowing us to focus on our core business."
By combining sustainability efforts with commercial development, Sinwa has strengthened its position in the market and ensured continued growth. With accurate emissions data now available, they are well-equipped to meet evolving industry demands.
