Social responsibility

Corporate responsibility is an integral part of our business and culture. Corporate responsibility is about conscience and care: for our people, our community and our planet.

Corporate responsibility is also about ideology: a duty beyond expectations and regulations, beyond the compulsory and the necessary. It refers to our commitment to operate in an economically, socially and environmentally sustainable manner that is transparent and of increasing value to our staff, clients, stakeholders and the community.

In SHIPTECO we consider corporate responsibility as a key component of our sustainable development. Through “SHIPTECO FOUNDATION” and other foundations established by the Group, via a diverse range of projects, we continuously pursue initiatives to support four principal areas of focus: sustainability of the maritime industry, education, culture and support to societies in need.
