The International Air Transport Association (IATA) has initiated the Air Cargo Device Assessment Program to ensure that air cargo tracking devices and sensors meet stringent safety standards. This program addresses the increasing demand for secure air cargo services, especially for sensitive items like pharmaceuticals and electronics. It validates compliance with IATA’s Recommended Practice 1693 and offers benefits to manufacturers, airlines, and shippers by simplifying the validation process and enhancing the safety and efficiency of time-sensitive shipments. The first validated product is THE BOX, a reusable packing solution.
