ClassNK

ClassNK is an international classification society dedicated to ensuring maritime safety and protecting the marine environment. A classification society is an organization that establishes rules and carries out surveys of vessels from a neutral, third-party standpoint, registering a "class" that is essential for commercial ships to obtain insurance coverage.
