SOLAS

SOLAS is an international maritime safety treaty designed to ensure that ships comply with minimum safety standards in construction, equipment and operation. The International Maritime Organization (IMO) has announced that this new container weighing legislation will come into force from July 1, 2016.

Starting July 1, 2016, the SOLAS (Safety of Life at Sea) Treaty will require all containers to have a verifiable gross mass entered into the ship’s manifest prior to loading – there are two differing weighing options outlined under SOLAS
