Ocean Safety has received the EC Certificate of Authorization from Lloyds Register, allowing the company to carry out all in-house certifications of gas cylinders. Ocean Safety is now authorized to pressure test many cylinders including composite, welded steel, seamless steel and aluminum gas. These cylinders are used in many applications within the commercial marine markets, including liferaft inflation and fire suppression systems.
