Grain de Sail blev stiftet i 2010 med et formål om at transportere økologisk kaffe og chokolade over Atlanten med et så begrænset CO2 udslip så muligt.

Nu har det franske selskab løftet sløret for sit nyeste projekt, sejlskibet Grain de Sail III, der er 110 meter langt og skal kunne transportere 200 tyve fods containere over Atlanten med et udslip på  mindre end 2 gram CO2 per ton transporteret per kilometer.

"Med Grain de Sail III viser vi vores ambitioner og styrker vores førerposition inden for segmentet for afkarboniseret maritim transport," sagde Olivier Barreau, medstifter og præsident for Grain de Sail. "For at gøre vinddrevet transport tilgængelig er vi nødt til at ændre skala, og det er netop det, vi er ved at gøre med et rent sejlende containerskib.”

Går projektet efter planen, skal Grain de Sail III sætte sejl i 2027. Selskabet råder i forvejen over to fragtsejlskibe af mindre størrelse.
