TOKYO : ClassNK has granted its Innovation Endorsements for Products & Solutions*1 to two initiatives by Mitsui O.S.K. Lines, Ltd. (MOL), “FOCUS” and “Sustainable Seafaring, Wellness Living”.

“Sustainable Seafaring, Wellness Living” is a concept for seafarers’ living quarters to realize seafarers’ well-being. ClassNK has reviewed the initiatives under this concept with the aim of: 1. improving the basic living environment on board through specifications that contribute to hygiene, privacy, and health, regardless of the type of ship, 2. achieving a more attractive and rewarding environment with specifications for each type of ship that contribute to comfort, convenience, and quality of life, and 3. realizing the well-being on board by establishing a new public space “IKOI” in the accommodation space. After conducting verifications on each, ClassNK has issued certificates to MOL.
