(MOLSHIP) received a new certification of its Environmental Management System ISO14001: 2015 and Energy Management System ISO50001 from ClassNK, after undergoing stringent transition audit and renewal audit processes.

Since then, it has worked to prevent ocean pollution through management of MOL’s concept ship “ISHIN series” as typified by the eco car carrier Emerald Ace, and set wide-ranging environmental and energy targets for reduction of the environmental impact of vessel operations.
The company also set the “Environment” as one of the items to be strengthened on a company-wide basis in the new management plan “Rolling Plan 2017.”
