125 of Safety for Maritime Autonomous Surface Ships (MASS Code) to support the safe integration of AI-enabled and remotely operated commercial ships into global shipping. While the MASS Code currently applies exclusively to cargo ships, the IMO has plans to evaluate and potentially expand the rules to cover passenger shipping. With autonomous ferries already deployed in Japan and Scandinavia, safety of autonomous ships is likely to rapidly come into focus. According to Cruise Lines International Association (CLIA), its members have adopted a range of operational safety policies that exceed existing Safety of Life at Sea requirements in several areas, including bridge procedures, fire safety, passenger emergency musters, lifeboat loading, lifejacket provision and the recording of passenger nationality to support search and rescue operations. The chief executive of every CLIA oceangoing member line annually certifies that these policies have been implemented, reinforcing accountability and encouraging continuous improvement across the sector. In 2025, Cruise & Ferry unveiled its ‘Periodic Table of Safety & Security Elements’ (see above), which features organisations that have products, technologies or expertise that can contribute to safer passenger shipping, organised into twelve categories. Together, they demonstrate that safety is achieved through the combined efforts of the global maritime community as it continuously innovates to protect passengers and crew. On the following pages, we highlight four more of the companies that form part of this Periodic Table, and profile their contributions to a safer and more secure shipping industry. “ With autonomous ferries already deployed in Japan and Scandinavia, safety of autonomous ships is likely to rapidly come into focus” ACH Cs SE D DK Ng FI Ai IT Sh NO 1 3 11 20 Sf GB 38 56 74 Ms GB Dn CH Z GB Ma FR Sj SE Sy DE 4 12 21 39 57 75 Mi DE An GB Ci GB Af DK Fi DE Sp US Ul SE Ki US JIE Da DK Mr FL Bc US Cb AU Ao NO Rs GB 22 40 58 76 23 41 59 Ac UK 77 24 42 60 78 25 43 61 79 Sr US We GB E PT Vi DK Ct GB Dt US Bg US Di DE Mh DE Sv GB 26 44 62 Wg PRv 80 27 45 63 81 Pf AT 28 46 64 82 Wa GB Wo SE Mt US Sw NL Ll GB Ri US Vr US Mm GB 29 47 65 83 30 48 66 84 Bv FR Lr GB Ab US Ck JP De NO 13 31 49 67 85 MCY Sa GR Nt AE Pv AE Ae US So GB Ic FR Su SE Ad US G AE 5 6 15 7 16 34 8 17 35 53 Pi GB Cp IT Vt SG Ap SE Bf US R US Ne LT Oa GB Ml DK Pe US Dl US Ss GB Hi CN 14 Tf US 32 50 68 86 33 51 69 87 52 70 88 71 89 Wr FI Sx GB Ah DE Nv NO Co UK Nc FI Pr NL Sc NO Ax GB Me GB Fs US Td AU Nm IT 92 93 Fu JP 94 95 96 97 98 99 100 101 102 103 104 105 It KR Aw FI Ch GB Wm US Sz LU Tt CY TO NO Ze BE Jo NO Li US Sd US Mk FR St US ImGB 106 107 108 109 110 111 112 113 114 115 116 117 118 119 Sl US Sk US On ES T US Aa SE 9 18 Do DE 36 54 72 90 Ec GB Bm AT Fo US Pl US Cc US Hn US 2 10 19 37 Ko NO 55 73 91 Navigation safety Communications safety and security Periodic table of safety and security elements Created by Cruise & Ferry in 2025, and updated yearly, our ‘periodic table’ profiles the wide range of suppliers and institutions dedicated to improving wellbeing and welfare at sea Safety management Alarm, monitoring and control Fire detection, suppression and fighting Escape and evacuation Safety and security education and training Safety and security standards Strategic services and physical security Surveillance, screening and identification Access control and property protection Operational technology and cybersecurity Cb AU 76 Lr GB 67 Ng FI 20 Sf GB 38
