SafetyatSea’s focus on providing cutting-edge solutions to real engineering issues is made possible by its dedication to research and development. These activities are conducted under contract from Government organisations, individual companies, as part of European research programmes or through internally funded projects.
From its inception in 1999 as a spin out company from the University of Strathclyde, SafetyatSea has placed research and development at its heart. Many of the new products and methods of problem solution arise from research projects allowing us to make advanced technologies available to our clients. Much of this research has been used to shape today’s regulatory framework through flag administrations and the International Maritime Orgainization (IMO). This activity has been the foundation and continuation of the ethos of the company: safety through innovation.
Many of the research and development activities in the company have been initiated and inspired by our work with the Industry. The experience and feedback from our Clients in conjunction with our scientific background has helped us to develop new ideas and approaches for meeting today’s evolving engineering challenges.
