Ship recycling

ISO 30000 certification

The ISO 30000 compliance certification defines the management system requirements for ship recycling operations in order to verify the efficiency, security and environmental safety during its implementation.
The management system in accordance with ISO 30000 must be implemented and applied throughout the ship recycling facility, i.e. the area used by an organisation to dismantle and subsequently recover ships.
ISO 30000 applies to any ship recycling facility that intends to define, implement, maintain, and improve a secure and environmentally-friendly management system in accordance with its eco-sustainable management policy.
