The most widely recognised ASME standard
Updated every two years, the ASME Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC) is a globally recognised standard for the construction of pressure vessels, piping and components, including those used in nuclear facilities. The latest update was released in July 2025.
To apply the ASME certification mark to a piece of equipment, a manufacturer must first be audited and authorised by ASME to perform the work. Receiving a certificate of authorisation and the certification mark stamp ensures your equipment is safe, compliant and accepted by regulators across global markets.
Finding an inspection partner with the accreditation, technical depth and global reach to support that process is critical. That is where LRQA's ASME-accredited inspection expertise makes the difference.
