Environmental Care

Reducing Our Ecological Footprint

At Marcap, we are dedicated to protecting the environment and preserving biodiversity. Our goal is to prevent pollution, significantly minimize our climate impact, and actively contribute to the circular economy. We recognize that our operations interact directly with the marine environment. By working closely with our partners, clients, suppliers, and subcontractors, we seek practical and sustainable solutions to carry out our projects responsibly. We aim to enhance biodiversity in the ecosystems around us and manage environmental risks to seize new opportunities for a greener future.

CLIMATE & EMISSIONS

Mitigating Impact Through Efficiency

We are dedicated to mitigating climate change by lowering greenhouse gas emissions through science-based targets. We actively work to cut down on fossil fuel use, adopt sustainable alternatives whenever possible, and improve energy efficiency to minimize overall consumption. To achieve this, we implement specific technical and procedural measures:

Planned Maintenance Systems (PMS)

We utilize rigorous PMS to ensure all machinery operates at peak efficiency, reducing unnecessary fuel consumption and emissions.

Route Optimization

We reduce our carbon footprint by utilizing modern navigation systems to optimize our vessel routes. This technology allows us to improve fuel efficiency and lower greenhouse gas emissions across our fleet.

Procedural Adherence

We strictly monitor machinery maintenance to ensure every vessel performs optimally with minimal pollutant output.

CIRCULARITY & RESOURCES

Sustainable Consumption & Production

We prioritize circularity in our operations. Our goal is to increase the use of recycled, repurposed, or renewable materials, thereby reducing our reliance on virgin resources. Our approach to waste management follows a clear hierarchy: Prevent waste first, then Reuse, Recycle, Recover, and only Dispose as a last resort. We drive this commitment through:

Annual Waste Monitoring

We maintain strict waste sorting and recycling protocols across our fleet and offices. By tracking this data in an annual report, we ensure accountability that drives improvement in our resource management.

Sustainable Procurement Policy

Our commitment starts with responsible purchasing. We prioritize sustainable suppliers to minimize our overall environmental footprint, lower fleet emissions, and reduce supply chain waste.

Awareness Campaigns

We actively engage our crew and staff in circular economy initiatives to foster a culture of responsibility.

ECOSYSTEMS

Respecting Marine Biodiversity

We acknowledge that our activities affect the environment, including local biodiversity. That is why we are committed to gradually improving our environmental performance with respect to nature. From project planning to execution, we use our in-house expertise to protect and enhance ecosystems while ensuring the sustainable use of natural resources in the waters where we operate.

CERTIFICATION

Verified Standards

To ensure we consistently meet the strictest environmental legislation and our own high standards, Marcap is certified by Bureau Veritas to the latest environmental management standard:
