POLLUTION CONTROL & CLEAN UP
Wave International Wins Commercial Marine Sustainability Award
Wave International has been named the winner of the Sustainability Sector Award by British Marine. The award was presented by British Marine’s Commercial Marine sector at a ceremony held at the RNLI Headquarters in Poole.
The award recognises Wave International’s long-standing commitment to protecting marine environments through the design and manufacture of advanced marine filtration systems. Designed and manufactured in the UK, the company’s technologies are dedicated to preserving marine ecosystems and biodiversity by preventing pollution, including microfibres and microplastics, from entering the oceans and waterways.
Wave International’s products include the Wavestream bilge water filtration system, which treats bilge water to below legal discharge limits to ensure responsible bilge water management.
Its Wavebrite system filters grey water, enabling the safe discharge of wastewater from sinks, showers and other onboard sources.
For more than 25 years, thousands of boats, small commercial craſt, superyachts and ships around the world have relied on Wave International’s filtration systems to help protect oceans and inland waterways from oils, fuels, microplastics, fibres and harmful chemicals.
The company’s most recent product launch is the Wavecleaner VAC, a mobile pollution control system designed for use by marinas, harbours and other waterside operators to manage and mitigate pollution incidents effectively.
At the presentation of the award to Wave International’s CEO Paul Gullett, British Marine said: “Beyond product innovation, Wave actively supports environmental initiatives. Their most recent sponsorship was a voyage through the Northwest

Passage to highlight the impact of climate change on Arctic ice and polar bear habitats. Additionally, Wavebrite systems are deployed in deep-field Antarctic research stations to minimise human impact on fragile polar ecosystems.”
Paul Gullett (pictured) commented: “I am delighted that our work to help protect the environment has been recognised by British Marine members. We are a small but highly focused team, supported by a growing international distribution network. This award is also thanks to the boat manufacturers, marine waterside businesses and boat owners who share our vision and take action to ensure clean oceans and waterways.”
Following this achievement, Wave International will now be entered into the British Marine National Awards, which will be presented at the Southampton International Boat Show in September.
