ISO 30000:2009 Certification | Ship Recycling Management System

ISO 30000:2009 is the international standard that specifies requirements for a safe and environmentally sound management system for ship recycling facilities. It provides a structured approach for organizations to manage and control ship dismantling operations in compliance with national and international legal, environmental, and safety requirements.

From the moment a ship is accepted for recycling to its final dismantling and material recovery, ISO 30000 ensures that every step is carried out responsibly — protecting workers, communities, and marine environments. This standard emphasizes hazard assessment, waste stream management, worker welfare, and regulatory conformity throughout the ship recycling lifecycle.

ISO 30000 applies to all types of ship recycling facilities, whether they are government-run or privately owned, and can be implemented as a voluntary declaration or certified through a third-party body. The goal is clear: to minimize environmental damage and safety risks while maximizing resource recovery in line with global sustainability goals.
