We’re proud to announce that our subsidiary Drews Marine GmbH was awarded the contract to supply the HVAC and refrigeration for a 187.4m RoPax ferry, to be built for Brittany Ferries. Brittany Ferries has a profound respect for the environment and is committed to reducing the impact of its operations: this new RoPax ferry will be LNG powered, resulting in far lower CO2 emission levels.
Flensburger Schiffbau-Gesellschaft
Founded in 1872, Flensburger has developed an expertise in the design and construction of tailor made ships for owners and operators that require high reliability and optimization of their ship operations.
