Load safety
The safety of goods is pivotal in rail freight transport. Hence, UIC has produced Loading Guidelines to clearly outline the key principles and technical recommendations for loading methods, which will ensure that goods reach the intended destination unscathed.
Take advantage of best practices, and:
- Avoid damage to your goods and wagons
- Implement best cargo loading practices
- Facilitate processes and ensure compliance with regulatory requirements (OPE TSI)
- Facilitate knowledge exchange on loading and securing of goods on railways between the sector stakeholders
