The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME) founded in 1880 and publisher of its first standard in 1884, has long been a global leader in codes and standards for mechanical engineering. In partnership with BSI, ASME continues to drive international safety, compliance, and engineering excellence through its flagship standard: the Boiler and Pressure Vessel Code (BPVC).
The 2025 edition of the ASME BPVC is now available, delivering critical updates to help engineers, manufacturers, and compliance professionals advance operations, meet evolving safety requirements, and exploring the developments across pressure technology.
The latest BPVC delivers a comprehensive update, packed with valuable enhancements to support modern engineering, safety testing, and regulatory compliance. Key areas of focus include:
Enhanced testing and performance requirements: Ensure your products meet today’s rigorous safety expectations and performance benchmarks across diverse industry applications.
Expanded guidance on new materials: Understand how emerging materials and their properties are shaping next-gen system design and functionality.
Modernised design techniques and tools: Gain access to updated construction methodologies and digital tools that support smarter, more efficient engineering practices.
Broader application coverage: Address challenges across boilers, pressure vessels, nuclear components, and support services with confidence.
Improved defect identification: Spot flaws earlier in your development cycle to accelerate iterations and reduce costly rework.
The 2025 edition isn’t just a compliance document, it’s a toolkit for improving performance, enhancing safety, and gaining a competitive edge.
Support design innovation by testing products across varying conditions and use cases.
Drive efficiency and reduce costs through better planning, streamlined testing, and material optimisation.
Stay compliant and market ready with the most current standards adopted across global regulatory environments.
Access insight-rich guidance on stress analysis, overpressure protection, quality assurance, and more.
With this update, you’ll be equipped to build more resilient, efficient, and forward-thinking systems, whether in power, manufacturing, oil & gas, or process industries.
From enhanced safety protocols to cutting edge design innovations, the 2025 ASME BPVC is your essential companion for staying at the forefront of engineering excellence. Discover how the new edition can help you unlock efficiencies, safeguard compliance, and bring smarter, safer products to market.
