Participants includes, Jurong Port (Singapore), Port Klang(Malaysia) , West ports ( Malaysia), Johor port( Malaysia), North port(Malaysia), Solomon Ports.

Solomon Ports is the only port participated outside of the Asia region for this guideline development and launch.

In the course of this initiative which started in early 2017, Jurong Port partnered international marine consultant, Brookes Bell, and the Witherby Publishing Group in this endeavour.

The publication provides comprehensive guidelines on loading, stowage and securing, and advice on bundling, lashing, dunnage for various types of steel cargo such as rebars, coils, plates, pipes, structural steel etc, offering guidance that can help overcome years of overlooked shortcomings in stowage of steel products onboard cargo vessels that has caused safety and productivity concerns during cargo discharge operations.
