ATP Certificate
ISO Tank Container with ATP Certificate
Accord Transport Perishables is an international treaty that establishes rules for the transport of perishable goods by road, with special emphasis on the use of insulated, refrigerated, or freezer vehicles.
Although ATP certification mainly focuses on refrigerated and freezer vehicles, it is also relevant to other containers used to transport perishable goods, such as ISO Tank Containers. Meeberg can assist in obtaining ATP certification for these ISO Tank Containers to ensure compliance with international standards.
For an ISO Tank Container to become ATP certified:
Technical Requirements:
The container must meet technical requirements that ensure insulation and temperature control. This may vary depending on the type of product being transported (e.g., frozen goods, refrigerated products). Meeberg ensures that the containers meet these technical requirements.
Testing:
The container must pass a series of tests to ensure that it can maintain the temperature requirements set out in the ATP agreement. Meeberg can guide customers through this testing process and provide the necessary certifications.
Periodic Inspections:
As with other certified vehicles, ATP-certified ISO Tank Containers must undergo periodic inspections to ensure they still meet ATP standards. Meeberg offers services to manage these periodic inspections and maintain certification.
