Using transparency to drive progress on responsible ship recycling
The Ship Recycling Transparency Initiative (SRTI) uses transparency to drive progress on responsible ship recycling by way of a one-stop shop online platform to report information on policies and practices against a set of predefined disclosure criteria.
Why sign up to the SRTI?
The SRTI reflects a collective effort that brings together different players across the shipping industry, investors, cargo owners and broader stakeholders to improve ship recycling policy, practice and performance. Leading companies across the shipping value chain have shared why they support the SRTI.
“It’s our ambition to advance sustainable ship recycling. By collaborating with SRTI’s network of forward-thinking businesses, we want to support the industry in understanding how to better track ship owners’ scrapping activities that are not respecting standard environmental guidelines and violating human rights. Working on these ambitions collaboratively with the SRTI and its members, we are confident that we can create a more sustainable future.”
