Clean tech company expands

Silverstream Technologies has hired 13 new employees to support both the increasing demand and uptake of its market leading air lubrication technology, the Silverstream System, as well as the continued substantial global growth of the company.

Noah Silberschmidt, CEO of Silverstream Technologies, said: “We’ve delivered significant and exponential growth over the past two years, and it’s critical that we have the infrastructure and the right people with the right experience in place to ensure that we continue on this trajectory and meet our ambitious targets.”

The growth reflects the increasing demand for radical and proven clean technologies to increase fuel efficiency and reduce greenhouse gas emissions to meet shipping’s decarbonisation targets.

Senior leadership appointments include Gideon Overton as the company’s new finance director; Pete Dymond as head of contract management; Daniel Mann as programme director; Simon Cuthbert as head of supply chain management; and Andrew Wall as head of QSHE.

In addition to these appointments, Silverstream has also expanded its technical, operations, and administration teams.
