Introduction
What is an Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM)?
The Inventory of Hazardous Materials (IHM) is a vital document required for vessels under international maritime laws, including the EU Ship Recycling Regulation (EU SRR) and the Hong Kong International Convention. It identifies and manages potentially hazardous materials onboard ships, ensuring safe operation, maintenance, and recycling processes.
