Inspection of Lashing

Inspection of lashing refers to the independent assessment of cargo securing systems to ensure that goods are properly fastened and stowed in accordance with international safety standards. At Associated Surveyors Co. Ltd, our experienced marine surveyors conduct thorough inspections of lashings on vessels, barges, flatracks, and containers to verify the security and stability of cargo during sea transport.

Our Lashing Inspection Services Include:

  • Pre-Sailing Cargo Securing Checks
    Verification that lashings meet IMO/ILO/UNECE Code of Practice (CSS Code) and vessel-specific securing manuals.

  • Inspection of Flatrack Cargo Securing
    Ensuring over-dimensional or heavy cargo is properly lashed with chains, tensioners, or belts on flatracks.

  • Container Lashing Verification
    Inspection of lashing bars, twistlocks, and turnbuckles to confirm container stack integrity.

  • Heavy-Lift & Project Cargo Supervision
    Oversight of lashings for non-standard, high-value, or sensitive equipment to prevent shifting or damage during transit.

  • Photographic & Technical Reporting
    Detailed documentation, including photos, material condition, and compliance status for cargo owners, insurers, or flag/state authorities.

  • Re-Inspection & Remedial Recommendations
    If deficiencies are noted, we advise corrective actions and re-inspect to confirm full compliance before departure.
