Introduction
CCS approval is essential for aluminum welding materials used by the vast network of Chinese shipyards, which are major global builders of commercial vessels. Our CCS-approved wires meet the specific requirements for mechanical strength, weld integrity, and corrosion resistance outlined by the Society. This certification is a critical component for domestic and international buyers sourcing materials or vessels from China, ensuring compliance with both local and international safety standards for marine transport and construction.

Applications
Structural welding of ships, boats, and marine machinery built in Chinese shipyards.
Fabrication of aluminum structures for offshore units and platforms in the Asia-Pacific.
Repair and conversion of CCS-classed vessels across the region.
Welding aluminum components for high-speed ferries and naval vessels.
FAQ
- Q: Is CCS approval recognized internationally?
- A: Yes. As a member of the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS), the CCS certification is fully recognized by IMO and is a reliable indicator of structural quality globally.
- Q: Does CCS certification cover both MIG wire and TIG rods?
- A: Typically, the classification society approval covers the material classification (e.g., ER5183) for use in both processes (MIG/TIG), provided the manufacturing process for both forms adheres to the approved quality system.
