OUR MISSION

Until now, the market for shipbreaking has been driven by low cost solutions that cause great harm to people and planet.

CMT proves that it is possible to dismantle the largest ocean going ships cleanly and safely, while guaranteeing a positive business case.

FROM PROBLEM TO SOLUTION

The CMT solution enables circularity

By automating the entire ship dismantling process CMT has cracked the problem. The CMT solution combines multiple proven techniques that are improved by CMT to be applied to ship dismantling for the first time.

This creates a unique process that brings a ship back to it's original elements, that can all be reused at the highest value level. The main output being virgin quality scrap steel, which is a critical enabler for sustainable steel production. The automation ensures safety and circularity, and a throughput of more than 50 ships per year on a fully operational yard. Because of that, the business case for a CMT yard becomes highly positive.
