AnchorGuardian is our contribution to help preserve and protect the ocean and all that live in it

As one of the leading shipping companies worldwide, EPS understands the need to minimize anchor dragging, both for the safety of our seafarers onboard and for environmental preservation. Swiss Ocean Tech brings their revolutionary technology to address this concern.

The bigger the boats, the heavier their anchors and the higher the impact on the marine seabed. They leave large scars in the posidonia meadows which will need over a century to recover.

Providing useful
information to the

Providing big data solutions for port authorities, fleet management companies, environmental organisations, govermental bodies and projects such as Seabed 2030.
