VaCompact Marine
Eliminate the 24/7 energy load of a garbage cold room. Avoid €5,000+ per unplanned port call. The only hermetic vacuum compactor for the new 100 BRZ MARPOL reality.
The Challenge
Whether it's the 100km detour to a marina because the lazarette smells, or a blocked garbage locker forcing a superyacht into a €5,000 port call: Waste is the silent enemy of autonomy.
The Engineering
100% airtight sealing eliminates odors permanently. No smell escapes — ever. Perfect for open galleys on owner-operated sailing yachts or crew messes on superyachts.
Patented double-seal vacuum technology
5 large waste bags compressed into 1 compact, sealed package. Extend your autonomy by weeks. Don't let garbage force you into port.
60L (Sailing Yachts) and 90L (Superyachts) options
Full regulatory compliance for international waters and Special Areas. Critical for the new 100 BRZ Garbage Record Book requirements.
IMO-certified waste documentation
Whisper-quiet vacuum technology at under 45dB. No hydraulic pumps, no grinding noise. Operates unnoticed in the salon or during guest service.
Compare: hydraulic systems operate at 75dB+
Full stainless steel AISI 316 construction. Salt-spray resistant, pore-free surface. Built to outlast the yacht itself.
Lifetime: 15+ years in marine environments
Standard 230V connection. No hydraulic lines, no 400V infrastructure. Fits under standard counters or in utility lockers.
Fits standard galley dimensions
The Advantage
Superyachts save energy. Private sailing yachts gain autonomy. Everyone eliminates odor.
Typical outcomes depend on vessel size and waste mix.
Space
Shut down the garbage cold room (Superyacht) or free up your lazarette (Sailing Yacht). Store biologically inactive packages anywhere.
Freedom
Stay at anchor for weeks. Don't plan your trip around dumpsters. Avoid the €5,000 cost of forced port calls.
Comfort
No hydraulic oil, no noise, and absolutely zero odor in your salon or open galley.
