Damen Shipyards to cooperate with Greek equipment manufacturers

The declaration involves sharing of information about new marine equipment and shipbuilding technologies, the organisation of networking events to promote co-operation between Damen and Greek suppliers in various projects and where possible including Greek suppliers in Damen’s supply chain.

Special attention will be given to developing ventures that achieve higher levels of environmental protection and innovation.

The reaffirmation of HEMEXPO and Damen Shipyards’ alliance comes at a time when Damen is in competition for the award of the Hellenic Navy’s corvettes program. Greek participation will be important in the construction of the corvettes.

Previous interactions of Damen Shipyards with HEMEXPO members led to a contract with Erma First for the delivery of its oneTANK system, the world’s smallest ballast water treatment system.
