Marine industry standards

Marine industry standards are a set of official guidelines and technical requirements that ensure ships, equipment, and operations are safe, reliable, and environmentally responsible. They cover design, construction, maintenance, and safety procedures, helping manufacturers and operators meet international regulations. These standards promote consistency, quality, and safety across global maritime activities, reducing risks and protecting the environment. Organizations like the International Maritime Organization (IMO) and classification societies develop and enforce these standards to ensure ships operate efficiently and safely throughout their lifespan.
