UNECE CTU Code Sets Global Cargo Packing Standards

The IMO/ILO/UNECE Code of Practice for Packing of Cargo Transport Units (CTU Code) represents a coordinated international standard governing how cargo is packed and secured within transport units. This framework, developed collaboratively by three major UN bodies, establishes uniform guidelines that affect logistics operators, freight forwarders, and shippers globally by defining best practices for cargo stability, safety, and compliance across all transport modes.
