Crane Worldwide Logistics IATA CEIV Certified for Lithium Batteries
The transportation and storage of Lithium-Ion batteries require strict safety protocols to ensure the correct handling, packaging, and transportation methods of Lithium-Ion batteries, components, and products that contain lithium-ion batteries.
IATA’s CEIV certification program, specializing in Lithium-Ion transportation, is a rigorous certification process ensuring operations, personnel, and facilities adhere to the standards, government regulations, and guidelines IATA’s experts provide.
“As the demand for Lithium-Ion batteries continues to surge around the world, this is an important step forward for Crane Worldwide Logistics in continuing our focus on safety when handling Lithium-Ion batteries,” comments Robert Gulyas, Global Vice President of Automotive.
Mr Gulyas will be speaking about the importance of the certification program at IATA’s World Cargo Symposium in Turkey this week.
