Maritime Sector Testing and Notified Body Services

The maritime industry operates in one of the world's most challenging and variable operational environments. The equipment used on ships and offshore structures must be resistant to corrosion, high pressure, and constant environmental stress—this is not only a legal requirement but also essential for ensuring the safety of life and property. As GTL (Global Technology Laboratory), we offer comprehensive conformity assessment services to the maritime sector with our Notified Body status and technical expertise.

International Regulation and Certification Competence
We ensure that critical systems used in marine vessels are fully compliant with European Union directives and national legislation. Within the framework of our Notified Body numbers indicated in the image, we manage the certification processes for the following product groups:

PRODUCTS REGULATION NOTIFIED BODY NUMBER
ELEVATORS 2014/33/EU 2729
MACHINES 2006/42/EU 0437
PRESSURE EQUIPMENT 2014/68/EU 0437
HOT WATER BOILERS 92-42-EC 0437
SIMPLE PRESSURE VESSELS 2009/105/EC 0437
LOW VOLTAGE EQUIPMENT 2014/35/EU 0437
ELECTROMAGNETIC COMPATIBILITY 2014/30/EU 0437

Specialized Technical Tests for Marine Conditions
We simulate the performance of your equipment in real marine conditions in a laboratory environment, not just compliance on paper:

  • Electromagnetic Compatibility (EMC): We ensure that navigation and communication systems operate reliably in the dense electronic environment at sea without interfering with each other.
  • Pressure and Leak Testing: We certify the safety of boilers, pressure vessels, and piping systems under extreme operational pressures.
  • Corrosion and Salt Spray: We analyze material durability and coating quality against the destructive effects of salt water.

Why GTL?
GTL is a strategic partner for manufacturers in Turkey’s growing maritime and shipbuilding industry (Tuzla, Yalova shipyard region, etc.). Thanks to our integration with TSE and international organizations, we ensure that your equipment is marked with “CE” and other necessary markings for global maritime trade.
