Safety and visibility have taken centre stage in the ever-evolving bulk market in recent years.
As the industry continues to grow and adapt to changing consumer demands and technological advancements, companies are prioritising these trends to enhance operations, reduce risks and meet environmental and regulatory requirements.
According to Dinesh Balgobind, director of chemical and gases at ICA Bulk Logistics, safety remains a top priority when transporting bulk liquids.
“We continuously ensure that all staff are trained, certified and up to date on the various dangerous goods codes.”
He said the company had also recently purchased a new international logistics system.
“An increasing emphasis is placed on supply chain visibility in bulk cargo operations.
With this system, we can now integrate with other service providers within the industry to offer our customers real-time data sharing and accurate updates on their cargo's status, location, and estimated arrival time.
Through technological advancements, tank containers can now be fitted with various sensors and telematics, allowing us to monitor and remotely control the state of our customers’ products.”
