With 70+ years of experience of designing fire doors, the Finnish manufacturer Saajos Oy is launching upgraded and resized fire doors in A-60 and B-15 fire resistance classes, for use in demanding maritime applications.
Roxtec is the world leader in cable and pipe seals – with marine as the main focus area of operations. On cruise liners around the world, thousands of Roxtec transits provide certified protection against fire, gas, water and electromagnetic disturbance.
Lifting and securing of heavy and over-sized project cargo for maritime shipments calls for expertise and customised engineering solutions. Finnish engineering company Alvars Oy has responded to this need by specialising in demanding hi-tech area of seafastenings – with main focus on safety.
Insulation solutions in the marine industry is no small matter. For example, when a cruise ship is insulated, this can require up to 500,000 square metres of insulation, says Key Account Manager Herkko Miettinen from Saint-Gobain.
Pushed by innovation and technological advances, marine industry is constantly evolving – and this is reflected by the new materials and structures that are featured on new vessels. However, as maritime requirements differ a great deal from regular construction, extensive testing is needed before new solutions are deemed seaworthy.
In maritime use, hinged fire doors are needed for various types of large and small vessels. The certified Finnish manufacturer Saajos Oy – known for designing the first steel-based fire doors – has been in the business for more than 70 years, producing innovations the way you want.
Shipping can be dangerous business. International safety standards and regulations for seafarers are helpful, but new technologies are also needed to avoid disasters at sea. For one thing, the increasing use of autonomous vessels will require highly efficient technical safety systems and devices.
Meriturva Maritime Safety Training Centre aims at improving safety at sea by offering a vast selection of fire and survival training both for professional and amateur seafarers. Meriturva consists of two units, fire training unit in Upinniemi and survival training unit in Lohja.
Consulting group Elomatic has developed a concept design for the NYK Super Eco Ship 2050. The aim was to create a concept for an emission-free car and truck carrier concept, in cooperation with NYK of Japan. The concept ship incorporates various futuristic but feasible modern technologies.
In an ongoing two-year programme, researchers have teamed up to look into new techniques for autonomous navigation. The aim is to improve safety and accurate positioning at sea. Tallinks ship Megastar will take part in the research project as the platform for onboard field tests.
The time is now. This very moment—when the growth of the cruise industry has never been faster. And it presents a tremendous opportunity for those tasked with managing the record orderbook that lies ahead. From shipbuilding and ship fi ttings to electrical and ship operating systems, all the way through talent acquisition and sourcing, were planning the creation of the most revolutionary megaships the world has ever seen at Seatrade Cruise Global.
