Azimut Benetti Group and Ogyre have signed a partnership aimed at collecting and subsequently recovering plastic from the seas in three continents. The collaboration also includes the start of a feasibility study in preparation for the opening of a new marine waste collection hub in Tuscany.

The partnership includes the collection of 18,000 pounds of plastic from the seas in 2025 through the work of local fishing communities; at the same time, the two partners will jointly launch a feasibility study for the opening of a new hub in Tuscany where Ogyre will be able to operate in the collection of marine waste, involving institutions and the community and thus spreading a greater culture of respect for the environment.

Azimut Benetti Group is the first player in the nautical sector to support Ogyre’s campaigns, staying true its commitment to sustainability. For over 20 years, the Group has led yachting in the development and implementation of solutions to reduce the CO2 emissions of yachts, achieving the best results in the industry.
