As climate change continues to be a pressing global concern, the European Union (EU) has taken a bold step to integrate climate policy with international trade. The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) is at the forefront of this initiative, designed to address carbon emissions associated with specific imported goods. But what exactly is CBAM, and how will it affect businesses inside and outside the EU?

What is CBAM, and Why Does It Matter?

The CBAM is a pioneering policy introduced by the EU to put a price on the carbon emissions generated during the production of specific goods imported into the EU. These goods include cement, hydrogen, fertilisers, aluminium, iron and steel. This mechanism isn’t just about protecting the environment—it’s about ensuring that the efforts made by EU industries to reduce their carbon footprint aren’t undermined by imports from countries with less stringent environmental regulations.

At its core, CBAM seeks to prevent carbon leakage, where companies move their production to countries with lower emissions standards to evade stricter regulations. By leveling the playing field, CBAM ensures that EU industries and their international counterparts bear similar carbon costs, thus encouraging cleaner production practices worldwide.

The Two-Phase Approach of CBAM

Understanding CBAM’s impact requires a closer look at its two-phase implementation strategy, which began in May 2023 and will reach full enforcement by 2027.

Phase 1: Assessing and Pricing Carbon Emissions

The initial phase of CBAM is all about groundwork. Here, the focus is on accurately assessing the carbon emissions embedded in imported goods, especially those considered carbon-intensive, like cement and fertilisers. The EU collaborates with importers to gather detailed data on the production processes and energy consumption associated with these goods.

This phase isn’t just a technical exercise; it’s about setting the stage for a fair carbon pricing system. By thoroughly understanding the carbon footprint of imported products, the EU can impose a tariff that reflects the environmental cost of these goods, aligning them with the carbon costs faced by EU producers under the EU Emissions Trading System (ETS).

Phase 2: Full Implementation and Compliance

Phase 2, or the definitive phase, starts on the January 1st 2026. This is where CBAM’s full force comes into play. Importers will need to purchase CBAM certificates equivalent to the carbon emissions their goods are responsible for. These certificates are priced based on the EU ETS, ensuring that carbon costs are consistently applied to both domestic and imported goods. It won’t be until May 31st 2027 that importers will have to surrender the right amount of certificates and submit the first yearly CBAM report covering 2026.

This phase is critical for compliance, with a robust Monitoring, Reporting, and Verification (MRV) system in place to ensure businesses adhere to the new rules. Non-compliance could lead to penalties, making it essential for businesses to align with CBAM requirements.

Key Components of CBAM

To fully grasp CBAM’s implications, it’s essential to understand its key components, each playing a crucial role in the mechanism’s success.

Tariff Structure: Leveling the Playing Field

The core of CBAM is its carbon tariff on imported goods. This tariff is not just a tax; it’s a tool designed to equalize the carbon cost between EU and non-EU products. By doing so, CBAM discourages companies from relocating production to countries with lenient emissions standards and incentivises greener manufacturing practices globally.

Revenue Allocation: Investing in a Greener Future

The revenues generated from CBAM aren’t just absorbed into the EU’s budget. Instead, they’re reinvested into climate action initiatives and helping member states transition to a low-carbon economy. This ensures that the financial burden of carbon emissions is redirected toward positive environmental outcomes.

Emission Assessment Methodology: Ensuring Accuracy and Transparency

CBAM requires a standardised methodology for assessing emissions, considering the entire production process of imported goods. This comprehensive approach ensures that the carbon footprint of each product is accurately measured, promoting transparency and accountability in the process.

Trade Partnerships and Exemptions: Balancing Global Cooperation

CBAM isn’t about isolating the EU from its trade partners. The EU emphasises collaboration with international partners to address climate change collectively. Provisions for exemptions and special accommodations for certain countries and industries reflect the EU’s commitment to a balanced and fair transition to this new system.

Dispute Resolution: Fair and Impartial Conflict Management

Anticipating potential conflicts, the EU has established a dispute resolution mechanism to handle disputes fairly. This mechanism ensures that any conflicts arising from CBAM are addressed impartially, maintaining the integrity of the system.

What CBAM Means for Businesses

For businesses, CBAM represents a shift in the way international trade is conducted. It’s not just about adapting to new regulations; it’s about rethinking production processes to align with the growing demand for sustainability.

Businesses must be proactive in understanding CBAM’s requirements, investing in cleaner technologies, and ensuring compliance with the new carbon pricing model. Those who adapt early will not only avoid penalties but also position themselves as leaders in the global movement towards a sustainable economy.

How Ziegler Can Help Businesses Navigate CBAM

The Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) presents a significant shift in the international trade landscape, demanding businesses to adapt quickly to new carbon pricing regulations. For many, this transition can be complex, involving detailed carbon assessments, compliance with reporting standards, and strategic adjustments to supply chains. Ziegler, with its extensive experience in logistics and supply chain management, is perfectly positioned to support businesses through this transition, ensuring compliance and promoting sustainability.

A Step Towards a Sustainable Future

CBAM is a statement of intent by the EU to lead the world in climate action. By integrating carbon pricing into the global trade system, the EU is setting a precedent for how the world can balance economic growth with environmental responsibility. For businesses, understanding and adapting to CBAM is about compliance and seizing the opportunity to be part of the solution in the fight against climate change.

As the UK continues to shape its post-Brexit landscape, new regulations are set to come into effect, impacting businesses that import goods into Great Britain. By January 31, 2025, the UK Government will implement Safety & Security Declarations (S&S GB) for all imports from the EU and other territories currently enjoying an Entry Summary Declaration (ENS) waiver. With just three weeks remaining, now is the time to take action if you haven’t already done so to ensure a continued smooth operation of your supply chain. This change represents a significant shift for companies reliant on efficient cross-border logistics.

 

Understanding the Safety & Security System

The Safety & Security (S&S) system is a crucial risk management tool employed by UK Border Force to evaluate potential threats posed by goods crossing the border. This system ensures the facilitation of legitimate trade while safeguarding the country against potential security risks such as illicit drugs or firearms.

 

Key Components:

  • Pre-arrival Entry Summary (ENS) Declarations: These must be submitted before goods enter or exit a customs territory, allowing authorities to assess associated safety and security risks.
  • Pre-departure Declarations: Similar to ENS, these are required before goods leave a customs territory.

By assessing these declarations, UK Border Force can:

  • Expedite the movement of legitimate goods.
  • Identify and mitigate threats before they reach or leave the UK.
  • Control imports and enforce compliance with safety protocols.

The Role of Ziegler UK in Ensuring Compliance

Ziegler UK is committed to ensuring the seamless movement of goods, even as these new requirements take effect. As customs experts, we are fully prepared to handle the completion of all S&S GB declarations for the imports we manage. Our proactive approach means businesses can continue their operations with minimal disruption, knowing that their shipments remain compliant with the new legal framework.

 

What Ziegler UK Will Do:

  • Completion of S&S GB Declarations: We will handle all necessary documentation for your imports, ensuring compliance with the new requirements.
  • Partnerships with Hauliers: We are already in communication with our logistics partners to guarantee they understand their legal obligation

 

What You Need to Do

For our clients, the transition to the new S&S GB requirements will be virtually seamless. However, the clock is ticking, and it is imperative to ensure that all preparations are in place. Ziegler UK will manage the entire process, meaning no immediate action is required from your end. Nonetheless, a tariff cost will apply for each ENS declaration, separate from the import entry.

If you have any questions or need further clarification, our team of dedicated representatives is ready to assist you. We assure you that Ziegler UK is fully equipped to navigate these changes, ensuring your supply chain remains robust and compliant.

Conclusion

The introduction of S&S GB marks a pivotal moment for businesses importing goods into Great Britain. With the deadline only weeks away, immediate action is necessary to avoid disruptions. Ziegler UK’s expertise and proactive measures ensure that our clients can continue to operate smoothly despite these new regulations. Stay ahead of the curve with Ziegler UK, your trusted customs expert.

Some exciting news about developments within Ziegler UK that are set to enhance your experience with us…

Effective 1st July 2024, our Newport and Bristol branch offices will combine resources and officially merge into our existing Ziegler Newport branch. This strategic move is designed to significantly strengthen our service capabilities for both our existing and new customers, especially in the realm of multimodal freight transportation and logistics.

Enhancing Multimodal Freight Services

Previously, our Newport branch focused primarily on road freight and warehousing, while the Bristol branch specialised in ocean, rail, and airfreight. By merging these two branches into a single multimodal facility in Newport, we will create a powerful hub capable of managing all facets of freight transportation. This integration means we can provide a seamless and efficient service that leverages the strengths of each transportation mode, from road and rail to ocean and air.

With this merger, Ziegler UK is positioned to offer a more robust and versatile logistics solution. Our enhanced capabilities will allow us to better meet the diverse needs of our customers, ensuring that your goods are transported and stored in the most efficient and cost-effective manner possible. This consolidated branch will handle all UK, international, and warehousing needs, providing a one-stop-shop for all your logistics requirements.

Meet the Team

The Newport branch will continue to be managed by Chris Lacey, who has been a dedicated member of the Ziegler family for over 11 years. Chris began his journey with Ziegler at our Bristol branch before opening the Newport branch eight years ago. His extensive experience and commitment to excellence will ensure a smooth transition and continuous high-quality service.

Seamless Transition

Rest assured, it’s business as usual. Our combined branch resources have been fully operational since 1st July, providing you with the seamless and enhanced service you expect from Ziegler. Our team is dedicated to making this transition as smooth as possible for you, and we are confident that the merger will bring significant benefits to your logistics operations.

The annual Multimodal exhibition, a cornerstone event in the UK’s logistics calendar, once again provided Ziegler with an unparalleled platform to showcase our evolving capabilities. Our third consecutive appearance at this prestigious gathering marked a significant milestone in our ongoing journey of growth and innovation.

This year’s three-day event was a hive of activity, with our meticulously designed stand serving as a focal point for industry professionals and curious visitors alike. Situated in a prime location near the hall’s entrance, our presence was impossible to ignore. The stand’s modern aesthetic and interactive displays drew attendees in, sparking numerous engaging conversations and fostering new connections.

At the heart of our exhibition we showcased some brand new video content, with the spotlight on both our recent expansion into a sprawling 500,000 square foot facility at the London Gateway in Essex and our continued partnership with Crystal Palace Football Club as their Official Logistics Partner. 

We also took this opportunity to continue promotion of our pioneering customs solution, Ziegler:SMART. This innovative system continues to revolutionise EU importation by eliminating VAT and clearance requirements at the point of entry, a development that garnered significant interest from attendees grappling with post-Brexit complexities.

In line with global shifts towards responsible business practices, we proudly presented our ongoing sustainability efforts which have been echoed by our latest Corporate Sustainability Report for 2024. This comprehensive document outlines our ongoing efforts and future plans in areas such as carbon footprint reduction, ethical supply chain management, and community engagement.

The Smartscan app once again proved invaluable throughout the event, allowing us to efficiently capture and manage the wealth of new contacts made. This streamlined approach to networking sets the stage for future collaborations and partnerships.

Reflecting on the exhibition, it’s clear that Multimodal served not only as a showcase for our current offerings but also as a launchpad for our future endeavours. The enthusiastic response from attendees reinforces our position as an industry leader and innovator. It was a powerful affirmation of our trajectory and a glimpse into the bright future we’re actively creating. 

As we build on this momentum, we’re excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and the positive impact we’ll continue to make in the industry. The insights gained and relationships forged at Multimodal will undoubtedly shape our strategies. We remain committed to pushing boundaries, embracing change, and continually redefining what’s possible in logistics and supply chain management.
