Proven solution for
bulkers in shipping

Join the decarbonisation movement

A ticket to sail

Reliable & green transport

Wind-Assisted Ship Propulsion (WASP) in the bulkers sector reduces fuel consumption, EU maritime fuel costs, and improves your environmental label by harnessing wind power to enhance conventional engine efficiency.

VentoFoil units enhance bulkers’ eco-friendliness by reducing emissions and environmental impact, enabling zero-emission cargo transport.

ROI < 5 years

Achieve sustainability goals profitably:

  • Cut fuel consumption to lower operational costs and minimize expenses linked to the Emissions Trading System (ETS) and Fuel EU Pooling.
  • Enhance the Energy Efficiency Design Index (EEDI) for new ship constructions.
  • Increase the Energy Efficiency Existing Ship Index (EEXI) for retrofitted bulkers.
  • Maximize wind yield per square meter.
  • Reduce emissions for improved Carbon Intensity Indicator (CII).
  • Invest in VentoFoil units for the best cost-effectiveness per ton of CO2 saved.

Effortless Operation

  • VentoFoil units allow seamless sailing with minimal deck space, ensuring a small footprint on your bulkers.
  • The slim, lightweight design is perfect for shipping, eliminating unnecessary ballast and maintaining clear visibility for the crew.
  • Tilting VentoFoil units on bulkers provide exceptional flexibility.
  • Easy operation at the press of a button, allowing sails to be tilted during cargo operations or port manoeuvering.
