WASTE MANAGEMENT

On board our vessels, we deal with various waste streams, including garbage, waste oil, and sewage. And, for many years, we have been separating waste both ashore and across our fleet. This has had a positive impact on the processing and recycling of waste materials.

Furthermore, we introduced filtered drinking water systems on board leading to a significant reduction in plastic waste, and our cooks receive regular training from our food supplier, IFS, to help minimise food waste.

By introducing electronic logbooks on our vessels, we can digitally log various types and quantities of waste generated onboard, and log how it is disposed. Having access to this data allows us to analyse waste streams and identify opportunities for improvement.

Progress
Our goal is to start monitoring and reporting on waste streams in 2025 and to launch a waste reduction program during 2025 to further decrease our environmental impact. Specific focus will be on the use of onboard incinerators and explore possibilities to reduce their usage.
