About Shipbuilders & shiprepairers association
Shipbuilders & Shiprepairers Association: Leading the UK Marine Industry
The Shipbuilders & Shiprepairers Association (SSA) is a non-profit membership organization that has been serving the UK marine industry for over 100 years. The association is dedicated to promoting and supporting the interests of its members, which include shipyards, repair yards, and associated businesses.
At SSA, we believe that collaboration is key to success in the marine industry. That's why we work closely with our members to identify global opportunities and provide them with the tools they need to succeed in an ever-changing market.
Our members benefit from a range of services and support, including access to training programs, networking events, and industry news updates. We also offer expert advice on regulatory compliance and health and safety issues.
One of our primary goals at SSA is to promote innovation within the marine industry. We believe that by encouraging new ideas and technologies, we can help our members stay ahead of their competitors while also contributing to a more sustainable future for the sector.
To achieve this goal, we have established partnerships with leading research institutions such as Cranfield University's Maritime Platform Technology Centre (MPTC). Through these collaborations, we are able to provide our members with access to cutting-edge research on topics such as ship design optimization and advanced materials development.
In addition to promoting innovation within the sector, SSA also works tirelessly on behalf of its members when it comes to policy advocacy. We engage regularly with government officials at both national and international levels on issues such as trade agreements, environmental regulations, and workforce development initiatives.
Through these efforts, we aim not only to protect our members' interests but also ensure that they have a voice in shaping policies that affect their businesses directly.
At SSA, we are proud of our long history serving the UK marine industry. But more than anything else, we are excited about what lies ahead for this dynamic sector – one that plays a vital role in the global economy and has the potential to drive sustainable growth for years to come.
