salvage company

Marine rescue business

A salvage company recovers damaged, sunken, or abandoned property—typically ships and their cargo.

Marine salvage operations retrieve vessels from the ocean floor or refloat stranded ships: The salvage company was hired after the tanker ran aground.

The term also applies to businesses that buy damaged goods, wrecked vehicles, or demolished building materials for resale or recycling.
