In view of an increased concern about various environmental issues, the focus on the use of non-hazardous materials in ship design, building and operation is also increasing. Two regulations are presently governing these issues:

Regulation (EU) No. 1257/2013 of the European Parliament and of the Council of 20 November 2013 on Ship Recycling (EU SRR)
Hong Kong International Convention for the Safe and Environmentally Sound Recycling of Ships, 2009 SR/CONF/45 (HKC)

IHM and EU Ship Recycling - DNV GL Maritime

EU SRR vs IMO HKC

The EU SRR and the HKC, both statutory requirements, place responsibility on ship owners, ship builders, suppliers, recycling facilities and national authorities to ensure the safe and environmentally viable management of hazardous materials (hazmats) as well as the sustainable recycling of ships. A fundamental requirement of these regulations is the documentation of hazardous materials on board ships, the so-called Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM), and the authorization of ship recycling facilities.

The table below provides an overview of the requirements from the two regulations in terms of their scope and certification:
