Jakarta to Host ISO/TC 315 Cold Chain Logistics Plenary Meeting, 16-20 November
Indonesia's cold chain standardization committee leads the international meeting jointly with the national standards body and IDSurvey, as the country prepares its own cold chain logistics standards.
Jakarta will host the ISO/TC 315 plenary meeting on cold chain logistics from 16 to 20 November at Graha Mandiri, according to the Indonesian cold chain association ARPI, whose chairman leads the national mirror committee for TC 55-02. The meeting is organized jointly with the national standards body BSN and surveyor IDSurvey.
The association has already produced several national standards covering cold last-mile and middle-mile delivery, temperature-sensitive food traceability, reefer box requirements and personnel competence. Inter-island shipping requirements for temperature-sensitive products are the agenda topic Indonesia is championing. The meeting coincides with the government preparing a national Cold Chain Logistics and Packaging Standard.
The week also saw Indonesia's cold chain industry convene publicly at the SIAL Indonesia trade show, where the cold storage logistics association highlighted IoT temperature trackers for door-open control and temperature handover monitoring as compliance basics.
