The application of basic principles of naval architecture is envisaged for improving the status of ship recycling industry. This paper has presented a holistic approach to review the status of ship recycling, not simply as the end of life activity of vessels, but as a focal point of integrating all activities. A new engineering philosophy targeting sustainable development of maritime industries, named design for ship recycling has been identified, formulated and presented. A new model for ship lifecycle has been proposed by adding few stages to the traditional lifecycle after analysing their critical role in accomplishing clean and safe end of life dismantling of ships. One of the main applications of design for ship recycling, viz recyclability analysis of ships has been presented as a part of implementation of the philosophy. Specific application areas of the philosophy in ship design have also been proposed.
