About Maersk Line

A philosophy of constant care

Living with the seas and respecting nature is ingrained in our culture. Our quest for constant care has a wide and deep meaning at Maersk Line. Constant care implies a strong dedication to promote the health and safety of our employees and others in the industry and in the world around us.

The world’s largest container shipping company

A considerable percent of the world’s ocean freight is shipped with Maersk Line. Our fleet of over 500 container ships sail every major trade lane. As part of the A.P. Moller - Maersk Group, we offer customers access to a truly global network.

A leader in eco-efficient, reliable transport

We are considerably more efficient than the industry average – and this enables our customers to reduce their CO2 footprint. Reliability is a top priority for Maersk Line. Independent third parties frequently rank us as the most reliable carrier among the world’s 20 largest shipping lines.

Putting customers first

One of our key goals at Maersk Line is to transform the customer experience in the container shipping industry. Working closely with customers, we’ve launched several major initiatives, such as eBusiness solutions, over the last few years with the aim of making us the easiest shipping line to do business with.
