The Sustainable Shipping Initiative (SSI) to the Priya Blue Industries.

As a proud SSI member since 2018, Priya Blue remains committed to advancing responsible ship recycling and supporting collaborative efforts that drive sustainability, safety, and transparency across the global shipping industry.

Our People & Community

Long before a ship becomes steel again, it passes through the people of Priya Blue. They bring the skill, the care, and the pride that no certificate can capture. And our responsibility doesn't end at the facility gate. It reaches into the communities nearby - standing behind local schools, farms, and the land that sustains them across Bhavnagar district. Looking after our people, their families, and their future, isn't separate from sustainability. It's the heart of it.  

UN Global Compact Commitment

In 2025, Priya Blue Industries joined the United Nations Global Compact, reinforcing our commitment to ethical, inclusive, and environmentally responsible operations. We actively support 13 UN Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) - from clean water and quality education to climate action and responsible consumption. Sustainability isn’t just a practice - it’s our promise to the planet.

Our Legacy of Famed Accomplishments

Jahre Viking

Framed Guinness World Records certificate for the longest ship scrapped to ST Metal with 944,763 tonnes, completed on 12 November 2010.

The largest crude oil tanker ever built, the ‘ST MONT’ (Ex. Name. ‘Jahre Viking ’ & ‘Knock Nevis ’), with a light deadweight tonnage (LDT) of 83,598 metric tons, was successfully recycled at our state-of-the-art green ship recycling yard. This process was carried out with a strong commitment to environmental sustainability & safety standards.

SS Norway

We recycled the iconic S.S. Blue Lady (Ex. Name. SS France and SS Norway) - the longest passenger vessel, after successfully navigating one of the most closely scrutinized recycling journeys in the industry. During the recycling of this ship, the Supreme Court guideline came, and the technical expert committee report n judgement came. It was a transition period in the history of Indian ship recycling.

MV Divo

Priya Blue has secured a Guinness World Records title for recycling MV Divo, the largest fish factory vessel ever built by lightweight tonnage. Recycling was completed on 8 January 2026 at Priya Blue Recycling LLP, Plot No. 169 M, Alang, Gujarat. Formerly Vladivostok 2000 / Damanzaihao, the vessel had a lightweight of 26,136.06 metric tonnes and 49,367 GT, and operated as a fully integrated fish factory mothership for at-sea processing, freezing, storage, and transfer of seafood.

Don’t take our word for it, hear what our clients say!

Priya Blue SRF Management team and its workers are committed to all safety and environmentally sound recycling methods as detailed in the SRF Management Plan and the Ship Specific Recycling Plan. PBIL Management and its workers warmly welcomed the presence of our internal and external third party compliance monitors and their regular audits. They were fully transparent and open throughout - in fact in most of the cases they were voluntarily going beyond what was requested and were explicitly keen to raise their standards and learn from outside advisers.
