Leading The Way
We Deliver What We Promise!
Our Mission
Our Mission is to assure Ship Owners and guarantee their savings with preventive maintenance and dashboard overview. We take full responsibility for leading the project safely from analysis to implementation, so you don't have to worry about a thing!
We aim to be the Shipowner's trustworthy partner in maintaining and managing their ships. Providing the best, most efficient services with top-level customer support and 100% satisfaction is the key to our Mission. We have been passionately working towards this goal since 2017, providing high-quality care while building lasting relationships with each client throughout their journey.
Our Commitment
We have already proven that it is possible for shipowners to save considerably on fuel expenses using our method. That, in turn, saves the environment from an equally large amount of CO2 emissions, making Frugal Technologies a driver for a better tomorrow.
With the growing concern over global warming, the International Maritime Organization has developed new requirements and compliances related to lessening Green House Gases. We are here to help you meet this challenge. We want our customers in the industry to comply smoothly and efficiently so they can continue doing their job well while complying with these regulations!
