Effer at Europort Instanbul

16 Mar 2015

When care about environment affects a company reputation

Effer participated in Europort Istanbul with Oceanist, the Turkish distributor for marine cranes to promote Effer in this strategic zone between Europe and Middle East. Together we had the chance to get in contact with many people and to discuss about different marine cranes applications and sectors.

In this edition of Europort Istanbul there was a focus on ship recycling with conferences and a seminar about this important matter: ship owners and fleet managers were invited to meet and discuss with the International Ship Recycling Association (ISRA) since  new ship recycling legislation will also have a large impact on them.

Attention and care for environmental matters have more and more importance and strong consequences for the sector companies.

For example, a ship owner has to decide whether to outsource the demolition process or to have it at his charge. Moreover, he needs to take into account the environmental impact of demolition and how this may influence his company’s corporate image.

During the conference the companies had the chance to learn all about these and other important topics.
