This session covered the health and safety aspects of the interior design of a cruise ship, through the deployment of safer, compliant products.

  • Type approval and Marine European Directive (MED) for interior panels, carpets, lighting and so on for use on cruise ships
  • How the Mutual Recognition Agreement (MRA) on marine equipment will simplify procedures – MED compliance will allow produces for sale without the need for any additional testing or certification
  • How do class rules SOLAS relate to appliances and equipment on cruise ships?
  • How does MARPOL (marine pollution prevention equipment) affect cruise interior design?
