The OVERHEAT Project, funded by the European Union’s Horizon Europe program, tackles a crucial challenge:reducing container ship fires and enhancing maritime safety.
This initiative aligns perfectly with the mission of the International Maritime Organization (IMO), a UN agency dedicated to setting global standards for safe and secure international shipping.
Shared Goals, Collaborative Approach
Both the OVERHEAT Project and the IMO prioritize improving maritime safety and sustainability. By leveraging the IMO’s extensive expertise and established safety standards, the project ensures its innovative fire prevention technologies and best practices adhere to the highest levels of safety and security.
This crucial alignment allows the OVERHEAT Project to achieve a far-reaching impact. Its solutions have the potential to significantly improve safety and sustainability practices across the entire global shipping industry.
A Future of Prevention and Protection
The collaborative spirit between the OVERHEAT Project and the IMO paves the way for a future where:
- Container ship fires are prevented, minimizing risks to seafarers, the environment, and global trade.
- The well-being of seafarers and the environment are prioritized.
Stay tuned for further updates on the OVERHEAT Project’s progress as we work towards a safer and more sustainable maritime future.
