Description
Marservis is a small and innovative shipbuilder from Western Istria, Adriatic Region. Marservis produces a broad range of leisure and service boats, with a variety of materials, propulsion, and equipment.
As a response to the need for efficient removal of marine litter, the project EcoCube aims at development of floating containers – “ecological islands” for collecting solid waste and wastewater from vessels and placing them along the Croatian coast near waterways that are regularly used by boaters and excursion vessels.
It is to enable "polluters" to discharge wastewater and solid waste into the reservoirs of ecological islands and thus protect the Adriatic Sea. The project invests in the development of a prototype of floating tanks – ecological islands.
This is an R&D project that will be jointly implemented with Norwegian company Clean Sea Solution, and this project represents continuation of the already existing successful cooperation between the two companies.
Both partners are participating financially in this project. Grant allocated to Marservis is EUR 146.000, and to Clean Sea Solutions is EUR 72.000.
Both partners will share IPRs (protection of industrial design of a new product and trademark and patent protection - 2 IPR registrations), and will share the project financial results, by way that each will benefit from their own sales.
This is a green blue project that will lead to increased revenues and profit of both companies, and will further strengthen their competitiveness.
