In June 2008, YICT unveiled brand-new detectors that can check for stowaways in shipping containers without opening the doors. The new method involves the use of cutting-edge heartbeat detectors at the entry gatehouses. The devices are convenient to use, and take just seconds to operate. They are also highly accurate.
Before the new devices were installed, staff members were already using electronic loadmeters and carbon dioxide detectors to discreetly identify suspicious cargo. With the new heartbeat detectors, YICT now offers three different ways to conduct safety checks without opening containers. If a suspicious case is identified, an emergency system alerts staff members so they can address the issue as soon as possible.
Through the use of the latest safety technologies and stringent port management practises, YICT is enhancing its ability to maintain a secure supply chain, thereby better serving the global shipping industry.
