TEMPERATURE CONTROLLED CARGO Clause Samples
The Temperature Controlled Cargo clause establishes requirements for the handling and transportation of goods that must be kept within specific temperature ranges. It typically outlines the responsibilities of the carrier to maintain the agreed temperature throughout the journey, including monitoring, recording, and reporting temperature data, and may specify procedures in case of equipment failure. This clause ensures that perishable or sensitive cargo arrives in optimal condition, thereby reducing the risk of spoilage or damage and clarifying liability in the event of temperature deviations.
