1. Virtual Presentation Ceremony Celebrates the Winners of TT Club Innovation in Safety Award
|
|
From a record number of over thirty entries VIKING Life-Saving Equipment A/S was announced the winner for its innovative HydroPen system designed to fight onboard container fires. Both PSA International and Cargotec Sweden AB were highly commended.
|

The ICHCA International and TT Club collaboration once more recognised the crucial role played by organisations across the world in constantly searching for better solutions to the challenges of improved safety in the cargo handing industry. While the three short-listed entries, and particularly the eventual winner VIKING, were to be congratulated, the efforts of all the organisations that provided details of their innovations are to be admired.

3. Safety Alerts
|
|
ICHCA International is committed to helping industry to learn lessons fast, learn them once and make sure that they stay learnt.
|
|
The information in our safety alerts is intended to provide all organisations in the cargo supply chain with the opportunity to consider the events and to review and adapt their own health and RoRo safety control measures. We are grateful to all those who provide these alerts and acknowledge their commitment to sharing learning to benefit others. This month we spotlight recent alerts on: Abrasive Blasting, RoRo Operations, Falling Objects/Working Overhead and Lashing Bar Tongues separating from the lashing bar.
