GL

Your Partner for Optimum Operational Safety and Profitability
Germanischer Lloyd is to the forefront whenever it comes to testing, researching and continual improving safety-relevant factors. For about 140 years Germanischer Lloyd (GL) has been offering its services to the shipping industry and setting standards in technology, safety and quality. Over the years, the spectrum of services provided has steadily broadened so that GL ceased to be a pure ship classification society long ago and is now a globally operating technical monitoring group.

The fields we cover range from classical maritime requirements such as operational soundness analysis and anti-corrosion advice, to offshore and onshore installations to our facility services. Whatever the field, we always aim to be a competent, independent partner for our clients.

Central to our thinking is the optimising of operational safety and the associated increases in profitability we achieve for our clients. Because at GL we view technical expertise less as an end in itself and more as a client-oriented service which delivers clear added value. And that is precisely what we are focusing on in our slogan “Operating 24/7”.

As a genuinely global player and market leader in this segment we offer first-class technical knowledge and expertise within a fast-reacting, flexible worldwide network. A workforce of more than 4,600 are at your service day and night in 208 offices in 77 countries, ready to offer you individually tailored, practical solutions.

Exploit our skills to enhance the profitability of your ships and installations. You’ll be surprised how versatile we are in our approach.
