Security is the foundation of the Port

Security is the foundation of the Port’s operations. All persons moving in the port are responsible for maintaining a high level of security. A safe port area allows for smooth flow of transports and efficient services to all operators. The port of Turku operates under the ISPS code for the base and passenger port and the Pansio oil port. While developing our services we also aim at improving security on the whole.
