Evac’s Complete Cleantech Solution
Genting HK's two 201,000gt cruise ships building at MV Werften will carry Evac’s Complete Cleantech Solution, which includes vacuum collection, vacuum toilets, wastewater treatment, dry- and wet waste treatment, and freshwater generation by reverse osmosis systems for technical water quality with a daily capacity of over 3,000cu mtr.

It is Evac's largest ever deal.

'Evac’s Complete Cleantech Solution noticeably simplifies implementation and coordination in the building process of the yard,'  says Ljubo Jurisevic, md of Evac Germany and president of Evac global cruise business.

While under construction, Evac’s two offices in North Germany enables any problems to be solved quickly, he added.

'The added value of Evac’s complete solution is that its integrated solutions reduce interfaces and thus risks for the shipyard and ship owner,' continued Jurisevic.

Evac’s global presence mean spare parts and service are easily accessible, and ship owners have a single point of contact for aftersales and spares, with the advantage of having efficient spares procurement and logistics.

'This one-stop shop is what sets Evac apart,' says Jurisevic.

Over the next five years Genting will turn to MV Werften to build nine ships for its three brands, Star Cruises, Dream Cruises, and Crystal Cruises.

'This is great for Germany and the MW Werften shipyards,' he remarked.

'There are now more competitors outside the big three players to serve this growing cruise market.'Evac Group is a provider of integrated waste-, wastewater-, and water management systems for the marine, offshore, and building industries.

Evac has employees in Brazil, China, Finland, France, Germany, Korea, Norway, Sweden and the US, and representatives in more than 40 countries. The company’s turnover was €98m in 2015.
