Meanwhile, a series of Headway products has won high recognition and appreciation from these well-known ship owners. 

Most of the ship owners at the conference have a long-term and stable cooperation with Headway, such as the cooperation of Ultrasonic Thickness Gauging and ship-repair services provided by NSO, the Parent Company of Headway, as well as the installations of Water Ingress Detect Alarm System, Dewatering System, VDR/S-VDR and ECDIS provided by Headway. Furthermore, Headway once provided Space Evaluation of Engine Room on board and delivered an effective BWMS installation report of the existing vessel for US ship owner -Genco Shipping.
