About Damen
Damen has been a leading shipbuilding company in the electrification of ships since the technology to make it possible began to become available. This was due not only to its own urge to innovate by producing vessels that were ever more efficient and effective, but also to its stated commitment to be the most sustainable shipbuilder in the world; in its operations, its organization and in the vessels that it designs and builds. Recently, it has designed and built electric ferries and the first full sized electric ship handling tug.
