Seawater is an essential, renewable and ever-present mechanical element for a superyacht. The engines of a superyacht are cooled using seawater, it can be used as a fire extinguisher and be chilled to pass through the onboard air conditioning system.&nbsp;Before seawater can be used in engineering systems, any unwanted materials and pollution in seawater such as plants, sea animals, shells, waste, plastics and wood need to be removed to avoid damage to the piping network of a superyacht. This is done through the use of filters, which are installed on the steering and port side of a superyacht to strain and clean the seawater before it reaches the yacht’s system. These filters are usually made out of metal, which is a very corrosion-sensitive material. Metal filters made from Ferro steel, galvanised steel or stainless steel need to be regularly cleaned and replaced due to their limited lifespan - which can be as little as one year. In turn, the increased production has a negative impact on the environment.&nbsp;<img src="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/uploads/store/photo/53662/image/large-19950f66c90e07b1847c80b401526b0c.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/53662"><a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5184" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="STC Trade (Company)">STC Trade</a> is a company focused on sustainable innovations for shipbuilding and the marine industry that has created an environmentally-friendly alternative to the common metal filters. Their solution is high-density polyethene (HDPE) filters and fibre-glass reinforced plastic castings.&nbsp;The high-density polyethene HDPE filters created by STC Trade are moulded from a naturally tough and resistant material that can withstand corrosion by seawater and external influences. This means that their lifespan is unlimited and as a result, the cost of ownership is much lower.&nbsp;<img src="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/uploads/store/photo/53664/image/large-c5b29aa168a7924697c0ab21b55e9ac7.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/53664">Another benefit of the filters is their design - their lightweight feature enables them to be lifted out of the inlet strainer and cleaned easily by one person. In addition, the filters do not require a hoist to be installed, which would be needed for installing a heavy metal alternative. All filters can be made to measure and currently more than 50% of HDPE filters are made according to the drawings and measurements of the superyacht. Due to the lack of hoisting equipment required and the customisable filter design, the superyacht will benefit from additional space in the busy engine room.&nbsp;Based in the Netherlands, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5184" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="STC Trade (Company)">STC Trade</a> successfully introduced the HDPE filters in the Dutch superyacht industry in 2009 and has been the preferred supplier to many leading Dutch superyacht builders since. Over 500 filters are onboard various superyachts around the world, including the new plastic filters for bilge water.Thanks to their versatility, the HDPE filters can be delivered both during the new building phase, during a refit or as a replacement. In 2017 <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5184" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="STC Trade (Company)">STC Trade</a> began introducing their products, which are also certified under IMO Regulations, into the commercial shipping sector to further their bid to preserve the environment. IHC and Damen shipyards have been applying filters from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5184" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="STC Trade (Company)">STC Trade</a> in Econosto inlet strainers.&nbsp;<img src="/uploads/store/photo/21131/image/large-88b0bb4cdc944c1d86ce9973a60ee525.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/21131">To make an enquiry on how HDPE filters can improve your vessel, like that of the 77.7-metre superyacht <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Yacht/2449" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Tango77.7m (254'11&quot;)">Tango</a>: “The white worm does not stick to the strainers in the same way it did to the stainless sea strainers. The previously experienced corrosion in the dead water (low flow) areas around the old stainless steel strainers were eliminated by the material change. I would definitely want these type filters installed on any other yacht,” said the superyacht’s chief engineer.&nbsp;<img src="https://sya.superyachttimes.com/uploads/store/photo/53679/image/large-5c4bd64e9c16c326b1bf08f37ff32421.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/53679">For more information on <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/5184" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="STC Trade (Company)">STC Trade</a>, please visit booth 10.410 at the upcoming METSTRADE Show, or via the information below.

In addition, the waves of the ocean are represented through rippled liquid metal panels, which increase the dark-light contrast of other materials.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/359543/image/large-12c2e04f17d59e1a7790d6ac236adf77.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/359543">Lighting is also at the heart of the GX42 yacht’s interior design, as floor-to-ceiling &nbsp;windows on the main deck ensure natural lighting, and Italy’s Ultra Luce have imagined several subtle direct and indirect lighting techniques for an array of moods and atmospheres. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/359542/image/large-9320be1b056fc66b0cd2238b63c94148.jpg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/359542">As <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4335" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Marco Casali Too Design (Company)">Casali</a> explained, “This is no showboat for flexing the muscles.

The second edition of the Blue Design Summit officially opened yesterday at the Teatro Civico della Spezia, kicking off three days of high-level discussion, design showcases and industry insights under the theme From Water to Design. <img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/358852/image/large-b247988493e96cf506f69bdff5d2fd12.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/358852">As the flagship event of Blue Design Week, which takes place from 12 to 16 May 2025, the Summit brings together leading figures from the international superyacht design and shipbuilding sectors, including prominent Italian and global design studios, shipyards, and suppliers.Read: <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Article/63247" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Blue Design Summit 2025 to return to La Spezia (2025-05-05 14:00:00 +0200)">Blue Design Summit 2025 to return to La Spezia</a><img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360139/image/large-2735ff6b409bacd97c3f51843e8e7152.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360139">During the first half-day of the conference, <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/4509" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="SuperYacht Times (Company)">SuperYacht Times</a>' Head of Intelligence, Ralph Dazert, presented our annual market report, while adding a real-time analysis of superyacht market trends based on first-quarter 2025 data.&nbsp;The headline finding was clear: the global superyacht market is stabilising following the post-COVID boom, but it is now evolving along two distinct trajectories. While the over 40 metre segment continues to demonstrate healthy growth, the 30 to 40 metre category is experiencing a marked decline in new orders.After peaking at 375 new superyacht sales in 2021, the market recorded 195 new-builds in 2024. At the same time, deliveries have continued to rise, from 163 in 2021 to 228 in 2024 as shipyards work through a once-record backlog of orders. That backlog stood at 695 yachts at the start of 2024 but has since begun to decline for the first time in years.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360142/image/large-0e57af53390af9de0374fcf22e4e9dda.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360142">The clearest trend, however, is the divergence between market segments. New orders in the 30 to 40 metre range dropped by 20 percent between 2023 and 2024, while those in the 40 to 50 metre bracket rose by 28 percent. In total, segments above 40 metres recorded a 13 percent increase in new orders during the same period.“The market is moving towards a two-speed dynamic,” said Ralph Dazert during the session. “Buyers in the upper segments are continuing to invest, while the more accessible size ranges are seeing hesitation, likely due to broader economic uncertainties.”In the first quarter of 2025 alone, new sales of 30 to 40 metre yachts dropped dramatically from 35 units in Q1 2024 to just 15. Units above 40 metres also fell, from 36 to 26, hinting at a potential slowdown across the board, possibly influenced by tariff announcements and macroeconomic pressures.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360141/image/large-9012db260b0ffe019d635576b6750ded.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360141">Despite the shifting market conditions, Italy continues to dominate the superyacht construction sector. In 2024, Italian shipyards accounted for 120 new yacht sales above 30 metres, more than double the combined total of all other competing nations. As of 1 January 2025, the country’s shipyards held 371 projects in their order books, representing 53 percent of the global backlog.Notably, Italian projects are also growing in scale. The average new-build from an Italian yard now measures 44 metres and 517 gross tonnes, indicating a trend towards larger, more complex builds.<img src="https://photo-assets.superyachttimes.com/photo/360135/image/large-11a858505cfb7e42e87eeba855986e4e.jpeg" data-gid="gid://syiq/Photo/360135">These figures were underscored during a panel discussion that closed the first day of the Summit, which featured leading figures such as Vasco Buonpensiere of <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/2354" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Cantiere delle Marche (CdM) (Company)">Cantiere delle Marche</a>, Diego Deprati from <a data-gid="gid://syiq/Company/375" href="#managed-by-system" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank" title="Baglietto S.p.A.
