AAL Shipping has obtained ISO 27001 certification, strengthening its information security framework across heavy-lift and project cargo operations.

The certification adds information security management to AAL Shipping’s renewed integrated QHSE system, which already includes ISO 9001 for quality management, ISO 45001 for occupational health and safety, ISO 14001 for environmental management and ISO 50001 for energy management.

With ISO 27001 now in place, the company’s assurance framework extends from vessel performance, crew welfare, environmental responsibility and energy efficiency to the protection of operational data, project information and digital exchanges. The added certification places digital information control within the same management structure used for the company’s physical cargo operations.

Mohammad Fadzil, QHSE Manager at AAL Shipping, said the certification reflects the company’s broader approach to operational excellence. He noted that customers rely on the carrier not only for the transport of valuable and complex cargoes, but also for the secure handling of critical project information.

The certification is particularly relevant to the heavy-lift and project cargo market, where tailored engineering, complex logistics planning and sensitive project data require reliable security controls.

AAL Shipping said the achievement reflects continued investment in governance, systems and personnel, reinforcing its position as a long-term partner for complex project logistics in a more digital and regulated shipping environment.
