Sustainable ship recycling in India focuses on environmentally responsible dismantling of end-of-life vessels while ensuring worker safety and efficient material recovery. With major yards—especially in Alang—upgrading to international standards such as the Hong Kong Convention and EU-SRR guidelines, India is becoming a global leader in green ship recycling. Improved waste management systems, controlled handling of hazardous materials, and transparent compliance processes are driving a cleaner, safer, and more sustainable future for the maritime recycling industry.
