Fleet safety requirements are tightening, and global trading patterns are shifting fast. Today’s vessels operate across a wider geographical footprint, often entering regions where a single GMDSS channel is no longer enough. To keep ships compliant and fully reachable in any scenario, operators need redundant, multi-network safety communications that meet modern operational demands.
With this in mind, MarPoint is enhancing its product suite with Fleet Safety solutions powered by Inmarsat C, C-Email, and Iridium GMDSS. Delivered through our trusted, accredited reseller partnership, these services ensure vessels maintain reliable, always-on distress and safety communications—anywhere they operate.
This expansion gives fleets a single, experienced partner for both everyday satcom operations and mandatory GMDSS compliance, strengthening safety across the entire voyage.
Fleet managers today face three realities:
Routes are expanding into polar and high-latitude regions
Redundant connectivity is a must—not a nice-to-have
GMDSS terminals must remain compliant and ready at all times
By offering both services, MarPoint helps you build a dual-vendor, dual-coverage safety ecosystem that matches modern operational risk.
Inmarsat C remains one of the most trusted and widely deployed GMDSS systems in commercial shipping.
What your fleet gains:
Fully compliant with IMO SOLAS GMDSS requirements
Two-way distress, safety, and operational messaging worldwide
Enhanced Group Calls (EGC) for weather, navigation, and MSI broadcasts
Cost-effective digital messaging through C-Email
Ideal for vessels requiring stable, proven GMDSS coverage
For operators running predictable global routes, Inmarsat C remains a robust, mature, and dependable foundation for safety communications.
