Polar Class is a classification system created by the International Association of Classification Societies (IACS) to ensure that ships are capable of operating in polar regions, particularly in ice-covered waters. This system provides standards for design, construction, and equipment requirements that enhance a vessel's ice navigation capabilities, thereby improving safety and operational effectiveness in such challenging environments. The Polar Class system includes several classes, each indicating the vessel's capability to navigate through varying ice conditions.
