Asbestos Surveys & Certification

Most countries have banned both the importing, exporting and use of asbestos, including aboard ships and/or in ships parts with asbestos or asbestos containing material(s). We offer a ‘one-stop-shop’ for asbestos inspection, testing, certification through our inspection body and in-house asbestos labs, which is fully accredited by UKAS. This service is for newly constructed vessels, fleet-in-service vessels as per IMO SOLAS regulations or flag state requirements such as those of France, Australia and the Netherlands. We also offer asbestos inspections, as well as asbestos-free certification for office buildings.

Asbestos Management, Removal & Abatement

According to IMO MSC.1/Circ.1374, when asbestos is detected on-board, action should be taken to have it removed and assigned to professional asbestos removal companies such as us. This should take place within a time frame of 3 years from the date when the asbestos is first found. Asbestos removal should be conducted in close consultation and, where applicable, under the supervision of the Flag State concerned. Asbestos management may be required when asbestos removal is not entirely possible due to the circumstances. We help ship owners carefully select and implement safe asbestos encapsulation, enclosure, encasement, repair or removal procedures.
