Still confused about the SOLAS VGM rule which takes effect on July 1?
As of July 01, 2016, it will become mandatory to verify a container’s weight before it is loaded onto a vessel.
Jade first to address weight issue
Since March this year, Jade Logistics’ terminal operating system, Master Terminal, has been ready to capture a container’s VGM, making Jade one of, if not the first TOS vendor to introduce this functionality into their software.
Worth the weight?
With new container weighing regulations due to take effect in July 2016, is your port in position to capitalize on this industry-changing opportunity?
