Company Description
Seabound is an award-winning startup decarbonizing shipping by capturing CO₂ emissions directly onboard ships. Its modular carbon capture system traps both sulphur and CO₂ from a ship’s engine exhaust — helping shipowners comply with brand new regulations, avoid hefty penalties, and reduce fuel costs. Founded in late 2021, Seabound recently completed the world’s first port-based CO₂ capture demonstration at the Port of Long Beach with STAX Engineering and Wallenius Wilhelmsen, achieving a ~95% efficiency CO₂ capture rate. Previously, the company ran a world-first pilot with Lomar Shipping and Hapag-Lloyd, capturing CO₂ at ~80% efficiency on a container ship in the Middle East. To date, Seabound has raised $6.8M from top-tier investors including Lowercarbon Capital, Y Combinator, Eastern Pacific Shipping, Elemental Impact, and Collaborative Fund; and won £2.2M in UK government grants through the Clean Maritime Demonstration Competition.
