INVEST IN CLEAN ENERGY THROUGHOUT OUR MARINAS

At D-Marin, we are committed to promoting environmental sustainability through significant investment in clean energy programmes across our network of marinas. Our ambition is to transition to more renewable energy sources, such as solar and wind power, reducing our dependence on conventional fossil fuels. Through a combination of investment, innovation and collaboration, we aim to make our marinas cleaner and more energy efficient.

Using renewable energy

A core part of our clean energy strategy is investment in renewable energy sources, particularly solar power. We are upgrading equipment at our marinas, including installing smart poles and solar power systems, to reduce energy consumption and support cleaner operations. By harnessing the power of the sun, we are significantly reducing our carbon footprint and creating more sustainable infrastructure.

Electric transport for greener operations

In addition to renewable energy, D-Marin is introducing electric vehicles into its business. From electric cars and scooters to bicycles, we are adopting cleaner transport solutions to reduce emissions at our marinas. Switching to electric vehicles not only minimises our environmental impact, but also increases the overall environmental friendliness of our facilities.

Monitoring and reducing carbon emissions

As part of our commitment to sustainability, we conscientiously calculate our carbon footprint in all three scopes - direct emissions, indirect emissions from purchased energy and other indirect emissions. This detailed monitoring allows us to identify areas for improvement and set specific targets for emission reductions. Our compliance with the Science Based Targets (SBTi) initiative further reinforces our goal of significantly reducing emissions in line with global climate targets.

PROMOTE OUR WELL BEING FOR OUR PEOPLE AND OUR CUSTOMERS

At D-Marin, the well-being of our employees, customers and partners is a top priority. We are committed to creating an environment that fosters respect, care and high standards of support for all those associated with our business. Our thoughtful and considerate approach ensures that we maintain the highest level of care in everything we do. Whether it's engaging our teams, serving our clients or building long-term relationships with partners and communities.

Listening and acting on feedback

A key part of promoting well-being is understanding the needs, expectations and satisfaction of those we work with. D-Marin conducts regular surveys to gather valuable feedback - both from customers through our Net Promoter Score (NPS) surveys and from employees through our Employee Net Promoter Score (eNPS). These surveys allow us to continually improve by addressing issues and enhancing the experience of those who use our services.

Ensuring health, safety and environmental protection

D-Marin takes a proactive approach to health, safety and environmental (HSE) management. With internationally recognised certifications such as ISO 45001 for health and safety and ISO 14001 for environmental management, we implement rigorous measures to ensure safe working conditions and environmentally responsible practices in our marinas. These certifications underline our commitment to providing a safe environment for both our employees and customers.

Ethics and responsibility

Adherence to the highest ethical standards is at the heart of our business. To ensure transparency and accountability, D-Marin has established a dedicated hotline linked to our Code of Ethics. This provides an open and confidential channel for employees and stakeholders to raise concerns and seek advice on ethical issues, reinforcing our commitment to integrity and accountability.

Supporting a culture of cyber security and privacy

In today's digital world, protecting sensitive information is crucial. D-Marin promotes strong internal cyber security and data privacy practices. We ensure that both our employees and customers can trust that their personal information is safe. By prioritising privacy and security, we help create a trustworthy environment where people feel confident engaging with our business.

RESPECT OUR NEIGHBOURS AND COMMUNITIES

Being a respectful and responsible neighbour is at the heart of our business philosophy. We have confidence that by working with local communities and treating others as we would like to be treated ourselves, we can create a lasting, positive impact that extends beyond our marinas. Building trust and mutual respect with those who live and work in the areas in which we operate is fundamental to our ethos and essential to the long-term success of our business.

Promoting health and safety

One of the ways in which we contribute to the well-being of our communities is through our commitment to health and safety. Each year we run first aid and H&S training programmes to ensure that both our employees and the wider community are well prepared to deal with emergencies. These initiatives not only improve safety standards at our marinas, but also enable local residents to learn valuable life-saving skills.

Contribution to local communities

D-Marin is deeply committed to supporting local communities through meaningful activities. We actively engage through donations and sponsorships. We partner with organisations whose goals align with our values. Whether it is supporting local events, community programmes or charitable initiatives, our aim is to make a positive and lasting impact in the regions where we operate.

Investing in the next generation

We believe in nurturing future talent and providing opportunities for young people. Through our partnerships with maritime and tourism schools, we invite young people into our marinas, offering them hands-on experience in the industry. This initiative not only helps young professionals gain valuable skills, but also strengthens our connection with the local community by supporting education and career development.
