Recycling

  • In ATLAS SHIPYARDS S.A. we recognize the importance of environment’s sustainability and protection.

    That is the reason for which we want to ensure the safe recycling of yachts. We recycle yachts according to international norms, in order to avoid environmental problems and safety issues.

    Recycling begins with design.

    Optimal recycling begins in the stage of designing, by a detailed selection of materials. This procedure, the conscious selection of materials, is continuing until production is concluded. ATLAS SHIPYARDS S.A. engages to identify any hazardous materials and facilitates recycling. Yachts have to be dismantled and materials must be separated in order to be recycled. Non-recyclable materials will be processed safely and in the most ECO friendly manner. ATLAS SHIPYARDS S.A. constantly seeks for alternative materials in order to increase the amount of materials than can be recycled. We support the only true ECO friendly solution. The use of “Green Ships Recycling” in approved facilities. Our premises are in position to manage up to 99% of the materials and process hazardous waste.
