Introduction to the EGCSA
Don Gregory, Director EGCSA says:
“Welcome to our website – EGCSA believes that now is the time for the shipping industry to take stock of the commercial benefits that the industry has enjoyed on the back of globalisation and balance that against the need to invest in technology for a sustainable future.”

EGCSA launches global database to eliminate uncertainty around the operation of exhaust gas cleaning systems
World map with a zoom-in facility makes it possible to identify individual wharfs and quays and see if there are any restrictions on the operation of EGCS in place. The database provides links and verified information on legislation or rules that have been imposed.
EGCSA Full Members
Member companies of the Exhaust Gas Cleaning Systems Association are involved in the development, design, final installed configuration and approval of turnkey exhaust gas cleaning systems to meet the current and future emissions regulations of IMO and where applicable additional regulations introduced by regional and national authorities.
Due to the diversity of exhaust emissions and technology solutions, Member’s technologies vary in operating principles, design, size, power requirements and ancillary demands. “One size does not fit all” so it is important to make enquiries with all the members in order to establish technology that will be most suited to your application.
EGCSA Associate Members
Associate membership is open to all companies, organisations or individuals that have an interest or are associated with exhaust gas cleaning technologies and a cleaner environment.
