Welcome...

...to the IMPA Marine Stores Guide website which has been created to be informative and useful, featuring all the latest developments with the unique six digit code.

Since it was first published under the IMPA banner in 1993 we have worked alongside our partners at Fuji Trading to create a world leading reference guide and this website is a platform for discussion, development and continual enhancement of the six digit data and the guide.

Over more recent years IMPA has played a critical role in the development of e-commerce trading standards and we are delighted that following much work the Marine Stores Guide data is now available for use within ship managing/operating companies and suppliers. A large part of this website is dedicated to explaining how this is working and how you can use the six digit code within your IT systems.

We welcome your feedback and if you want to recommend your products for inclusion in future editions of the book or code then please use the suggestions forum section.
