The UK has a strong defence sector, continuously working to protect our country, our waters and our people. One of the key defence sectors that RVT has been able to support is the marine sector. It is of utmost importance that the structural integrity of a ship is maintained, and RVT are on hand to provide hazard control solutions each and every time a vessel docks for maintenance. We have also provided dust and fume control during the renovation of leisure yachts.
