Guidance on Responding to Pollution for Dutch shipowners

All over the world, shipowners and seamen are being told to eliminate pollution, to such an extent that, in many areas, it is a criminal offence to cause or allow pollution to happen, even accidentally. Much of the burden of this problem – and everyone agrees that pollution must be prevented – falls on those who insure commercial shipping. This is true especially for the many commercial craft who ply their trade on Europe’s waterways. One of the leading insurers is the Standard London organisation, whose managers are longstanding Wild West clients, the city-based Charles Taylor & Co., part of Charles Taylor Consulting.  As part of their response to the need for continued vigilance about pollution and the need to handle it effectively, Pollution Response sheets like these are designed and produced by Wild West in a variety of languages – Russian, Dutch, German and English. Just another example of how designers have to deal with multi-lingual issues these days! You can see more our design work for Charles Taylor at www.standard-club.com/knowledgecentre/
