Bound4blue is a Spanish cleantech engineering company specializing in automated wind-assisted propulsion systems for the maritime industry. Founded in 2014, the company focuses on integrating renewable energy solutions into shipping to enhance efficiency and sustainability. 
Their flagship product, the eSAIL®, is a suction sail technology designed to harness wind power to reduce fuel consumption and emissions. This system offers fuel consumption reductions of up to 40%, operates autonomously without the need for crew intervention, and typically achieves a return on investment in less than five years. 
The eSAIL® system is suitable for various vessel types, including tankers, bulk carriers, roll-on/roll-off ships, cruise ships, ferries, gas carriers, and general cargo vessels, regardless of their size or age. Bound4blue has successfully installed the eSAIL® on multiple ships and has agreements with prominent shipping companies such as Eastern Pacific Shipping, Marubeni Corporation, Odfjell, and Louis Dreyfus Armateurs to implement the system across their fleets. 
Headquartered in Cantabria, Spain, bound4blue also maintains offices in Barcelona and Singapore, reflecting its global reach and commitment to driving the decarbonization of the shipping sector through innovative wind propulsion technologies.
