AAL Shipping (AAL) has further strengthened its position as a trusted global heavy‑lift and project cargo carrier with the successful certification of ISO 27001, the internationally recognised standard for information security management systems.
The new certification complements AAL’s fully aligned and renewed QHSE integrated management system, which incorporates ISO 9001 (Quality Management), ISO 45001 (Occupational Health & Safety), ISO 14001 (Environmental Management) and ISO 50001 (Energy Management). Together, these certifications form a comprehensive assurance framework that spans every aspect of AAL’s operations – from vessel performance and crew welfare to environmental responsibility, energy efficiency and now information security.
“Achieving ISO 27001 alongside our existing ISO certifications underscores our holistic approach to operational excellence,” said Mohammad Fadzil, QHSE Manager, AAL Shipping. “As a heavy‑lift carrier, our customers trust us not only with valuable and complex cargoes, but also with critical project information. This certification demonstrates that information security is embedded into our processes.”
The addition of ISO 27001 ensures the protection of operational data, project details and digital information exchanges is managed with the same rigour as AAL’s physical cargo operations. This is particularly critical in the heavy‑lift and project cargo sector, where complex logistics, bespoke engineering solutions and sensitive project data demand the highest levels of security and reliability.
The achievement reflects AAL’s ongoing investment in governance, systems, and people, reinforcing its reputation as a reliable long‑term partner for complex project logistics in an increasingly digital and regulated global shipping environment.
