Our Story

Dedicated to sustainable maritime practices

MARHAZ was founded in 2018 by Svend Boes Overgaard (CTD) and Dr. Frank Stuer-Lauridsen (LITEHAUZ), with a focus on developing high-quality IHMs for the maritime sector. Together, they brought more than 40 years of combined maritime experience and a strong commitment to environmental responsibility and sustainable, safe ship recycling to MARHAZ

In 2024, CTD and Litehauz consolidated all their remaining ship recycling activities into MARHAZ, establishing a full-service company dedicated to covering all aspects of ship recycling and supporting all stakeholders across the value chain.

MARHAZ combines deep technical expertise with modern digital tools, cultural insight, and knowledge of diverse recycling methodologies to deliver smarter, safer, and more effective environmental compliance.
