Every year, the importance of ecology and environmental protection becomes more acute and urgent. Governments are responding by setting policies on the use of biofuels and other environmentally friendly materials such as wood pellets, lumber, etc. There is strong global trade in eco materials, including wood pellets transported by sea in containers. The main benefits of sea transport are its low total cost and high weight capacity, which continue to make it an optimal choice for shipping these kinds of products.
