What is the blue economy?<\/h2>\n

[\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n

The blue economy<\/strong> is a concept promoted by the European Union and the UN that encompasses all economic activities related to the oceans, seas, and coastal areas that:<\/p>\n

    \n
  • \n
      \n
    • \n
        \n
      • They promote sustainable growth<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • They promote social inclusion and green jobs<\/strong><\/li>\n
      • They guarantee the preservation of marine natural capital<\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

        From sustainable coastal tourism to renewable marine energy, the blue economy demands a profound transformation in how we relate to the marine environment.<\/p>\n

        Our dredging techniques are based on direct pumping systems and closed circuits<\/strong>, minimizing the resuspension of contaminated sediments, avoiding truck transport, and reducing CO\u2082 emissions by up to 80%.<\/strong><\/p>\n

        \ud83d\udccc Impact on the blue economy:<\/em>
        We contribute to the maintenance of port infrastructure and waterways without altering sensitive coastal ecosystems, promoting a clean and efficient port economy.<\/p>\n

        We apply sand supply solutions from selected seabeds, without the need for heavy land-based machinery or landfills. The reclaimed beaches not only gain functionality and beauty, but also enhance their value as tourism and cultural attractions<\/strong>. <\/p>\n

        \ud83d\udccc Impact on the blue economy:<\/em>
        We strengthen sustainable coastal tourism, a source of income and employment for many communities, while protecting natural barriers to climate change.<\/p>\n

        Through on-site extraction, separation, and treatment, we convert invasive Asian algae into productive resources that can later be used as agricultural fertilizer, compost, or biofuels<\/strong>. The entire process is carried out using floating equipment that does not harm marine wildlife. <\/p>\n

        \ud83d\udccc Impact on the blue economy<\/em>:

        We replaced traditional rock riprap with geosynthetic container<\/strong> solutions (geotubes, bags, and biodegradable barriers). These systems are reversible, adaptable, and have minimal visual and environmental impact<\/strong>. <\/p>\n
