Research & Development

The employees in our Research & Development department work closely with the other divisions at the shipyard. Their aim is to constantly develop new and sophisticated technologies. They focus on the shipbuilding industry, while other main focuses are on energy and the environment. A lot is happening here, especially with regard to sustainable materials and alternative drive systems, because MEYER WERFT is making every effort to build eco-friendly cruise ships.

The employees in this department also forge partnerships with universities, research centres and manufacturers, and they stay in tune with the national and international maritime research community. Additionally, they help develop rules and regulations for new technologies.

They also help MEYER WERFT make the manufacturing processes for the construction of its cruise ships as efficient, cost-effective, environmentally friendly and ergonomic as possible.

Some of the professionals in the Research & Development department at MEYER WERFT include project engineers.
