”With this partnership we strengthen our position as the marine industry's market leader for water and flow solutions. The depth of our portfolio and our application expertise are the building blocks to create connections for life, like our more than 20-year relationship with Fincantieri Shipyards," says Julian Backes, Head of Sales Marine EMEA, GF Piping Systems. 

The extensive solutions portfolio, application know-how, and expertise in design and project execution support Fincantieri's sustainability vision, contributing to its goal of reducing environmental impact and improving naval system efficiency.
