Description

Antipollution stands out for its activity on environmental protection. Our company participates in the Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association. It is the joint initiative of Greek seafarers and ship - owners to voluntarily take responsibility for the elimination of marine pollution generated by ships and enhance safety at sea.

The goal of this initiative is to create environmental awareness and improve security in the maritime community, through a coordinated volunteer effort to inform, educate and motivate everyone, from the owner to the last sailor.

Furthermore, Antipollution participates every year in voluntary actions for the protection of the environment such as “Let’s do it Greece”, that encourages the voluntary participation to countrywide cleanups for a single day but also in coast cleanups organized by HELMEPA. Antipollution also participated in the voluntary recycling and cleaning as well as in informing children about the importance of recycling, which was organized by the Hellenic Society for Environment and Cultural Heritage.
