Sustainability
At ANACO BV, active in tanker inland shipping, we are committed to a sustainable and responsible future. We believe that economic growth should go hand in hand with care for people, the environment and innovation. Our sustainability strategy is based on the United Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), with a specific focus on the following objectives:

We invest in continuous training and development of our employees. Through internal and external training courses, we ensure that our team always has the latest knowledge and skills within the inland navigation sector.

We create safe and fair working conditions, promote employment and contribute to a stable economy. We strive for sustainable growth through responsible entrepreneurship and innovation.

Technological advances and sustainable infrastructure are essential to our industry. We invest in environmentally friendly technologies and optimise our processes to operate more efficiently and sustainably.

As a company in the shipping industry, we have a responsibility to waterways clean and healthy. We encourage the use of sustainable fuels and work with partners to maintain and improve water quality.

Sustainability does not stop at the water. We are committed to reducing our impact on land through responsible waste management and limiting emissions. We also support initiatives that contribute to a better environment and biodiversity.
Our commitment to sustainability: Green Award
As a chartering office in the inland tanker sector, we attach great importance to quality, safety and sustainability. That is why we actively support the Green Award programme – an internationally recognised quality mark that stands for sustainable and safe shipping.
We consciously choose to work with ships that are Green Award certified. These ships meet strict requirements in the areas of environmental performance, technical condition and crew. By making this choice, we contribute to:
- Reducing emissions
- Increasing safety and professionalism on board
- Promoting sustainable transport by water
For us, sustainability is not a trend, but a conscious course. With the Green Award as our guide, we are helping to build a future-proof inland shipping sector

At ANACO BV, we work towards a more sustainable future every day. Together with our employees, customers and partners, we are building a responsible and innovative inland shipping sector. Want to know more about our sustainability initiatives? Get in touch with us!
