  • World’s largest vehicle carrier operator has sold the 1994-built Tanabata for green recycling in Aliaga, Türkiye
  • Scrapping activity in the PCTC sector has remained limited since 2021 due to strong demand, driven by booming Chinese vehicle exports and longer voyage routes caused by Red Sea disruptions
