TSAVLIRIS SALVAGE GROUP
as an international salvor, is part of the vital first line of defence in fighting the environmental threat from marine casualties. Many salvage operations can be cited to demonstrate the Group's role in preventing and controlling marine pollution.
The Group is an avid supporter of many environmental organisations such as: Hellenic Marine Environment Protection Association (HELMEPA - www.helmepa.gr), Cyprus Marine Environment Protection Association (CYMEPA - www.cymepa.org.cy), International Marine Environment Protection Association (INTERMEPA - www.intermepa.org) etc. Tsavliris Principals serve/have served as Presidents or board members of all the above organisations.
TSAVLIRIS SALVAGE GROUP
is committed to maintaining a modern, global network through the strategic stationing of its own salvage assets, as well as friendly cooperation with regional and international salvage firms, and will continue to enhance its proven ability to respond quickly and efficiently to maritime emergencies wherever they occur.
Salvors have long played an important role in preventing or, where this is not possible, limiting accident-generated pollution. This together with an increasing emphasis on Quality Shipping has led to a situation in which merchant vessels now account for less than 5% of total pollution of the world's seas and oceans.
