During IMO MEPC 77, a resolution on the strategy to address marine plastic litter from ships was adopted, confirming the commitment in reducing plastic litter entering the marine environment from all ships. The aim is to strengthen the international framework and compliance with the relevant IMO instruments, targeting to achieve zero plastic waste discharges to sea from ships by 2025.

Our Principals, Messrs. URSA AS, have developed a solution that helps Shipowners to improve their environmental footprint, by reducing the plastic wastes from their vessels.
URSA Essential Drinking Water Systems provide a sustainable alternative to plastic bottled water, while helping on the improvement of working conditions onboard the ships.
