Biomar has been delivered to AtoB@ C Shipping on June 16, bringing the number of 5,400 dwt plug-in hybrid newbuildings in the fleet to seven. The delivery marks another significant milestone in the company’s journey toward a more sustainable and energy-efficient fleet.

“We are thrilled to welcome Biomar into our fleet. With each new vessel, we are building a greener future for shortsea shipping in Europe,” says Commercial Director Frida Rowland.

In conjunction with the delivery of Biomar, the construction of the final vessel in the twelve-ship series, Luxomar, was commenced on June 17 with a steel-cutting ceremony. The eighth vessel, Ventumar, was launched on 30 May and is currently undergoing outfitting in preparation for delivery during the third quarter of 2025.

AtoB@ C Shipping has ordered twelve 5,400 dwt plug-in hybrid vessels from Chowgule & Company. One vessel will be delivered every quarter until the autumn of 2026.
