NCB ESTABLISHES SINGAPORE PRESENCE, EXPANDS GLOBAL REACH

New York, NY — 2 February 2026 — NCB has expanded its global footprint to Singapore, reflecting its commitment to servicing the Asia-Pacific region and to furthering maritime safety, compliance, and dangerous goods (DG) management globally. The new location reinforces NCB’s mission to safeguard life and cargo through safer, smarter supply chains.

Singapore will serve as a regional hub for NCB inspections and NCB Hazcheck digital solutions, bringing the organization closer to industry stakeholders in one of the world’s leading maritime and regulatory areas.

“Establishing a presence in Singapore is a strategic step for NCB’s global growth,” said NCB President & CEO Ian Lennard. “This allows us to better support clients and partners in the region with local expertise, faster engagement, and the trusted standards NCB is known for worldwide. It also strengthens our commitment to working alongside the regional maritime community to collectively raise safety and compliance standards through both physical inspections and digital innovation.”

The expansion provides a strong platform for continued growth as the demand for digital DG and compliance solutions increases across the Asia-Pacific region, driven by regulatory evolution and the need for greater consistency, transparency, and risk reduction in cargo operations.

NCB currently has corporate offices in New York, NY, USA and Darlington, UK, supported by 18 port offices across the US and globally distributed professionals to deliver solutions as needed.
