Container Weighing: Let the Debate continue

There is general consensus that the inaccuracy of weight declaration in the unit load industry compromises safety and efficiency. There is rather less agreement on how to implement changes that are appropriate and proportionate. The TT Club is hosting a Round Table at the forthcoming TOC Europe Conference to allow the debate to continue.

 

'That weighs eight tonnes, it will never move!'

International research has demonstrated that there is little awareness of the international guidelines for packing cargo. The TT Club’s claims statistics demonstrate that there is poor awareness of what good practice is in relation to packing cargo. As various UN Organizations seek to tackle this, the TT Club is hosting a Round Table at the forthcoming TOC Europe Conference to broadcast the debate.
