WSM promotes green products at Asia Ship Recycling Summit, Shanghai

WSM has again staged its green products. This time, at the Asia Ship Recycling & Sales & Purchase Summit 2010 in Shanghai from July 1-2, 2010.

Green ship recycling is gaining global popularity. Environmental groups now will focus on their "Off the Beach" campaign. IMO phase-out scheme for single hull tankers has been carried out. ISO 30000 has also been developed and popularized. The future of ship recycling industry looks more prominent.

We believe Green Recycling is the social responsibility of the ship owner.  Ship owners who feel they are accountable for the environment will choose green ship recycling. 

Our green ship recycling services is a solid step on the green path. We make it possible and simple for shipowners to contribute to the environment. Our green recycling is based on a ship recycling plan which stated all ships to be recycled to have proper Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) or green passport. Together with our appointed / authorized shipyard, WSM monitors the demolition process. Our complete package is now ready to be offered to owners who would like to join in the green movement.
