Imtech is observing a recovery of the technological maritime market in the Far East, and a growing intake of orders in this region over the past year. With a total of 10 local offices, Imtech has a strong position in this region and sees good opportunities for further growth.

Imtech Marine Managing Director Eric van den Adel: ‘I recently visited our key office locations in the Far East. The region is developing into an even more important centre for global shipping and shipbuilding. In 2010, several contracts for the construction of new ships were put on the market – considerably more than last year. With our offices in the Far East, we cover all maritime market segments. We are a technical services provider of complex and tailor-made, innovative technology solutions in the area of automation, energy & drive, HVAC, AV entertainment and navigation & communications. This expertise enables Imtech to offer an extensive range of services to both Asian and Western shipyards and owners who have their vessels built and operated in the Far East.
