New Standard from Last Update.

NATIONAL FOREWORD

This Indian Standard which is identical with ISO 23412 : 2020 ‘Indirect, temperature-controlled refrigerated delivery services - Land transport of parcels with intermediate transfer’ issued by International Organization for Standardization (ISO) was adopted by the Bureau of Indian Standards on recommendation of the Transport Services Sectional Committee and approval of the Service Sector Division Council.

In recent years there has been a growth in temperature-controlled refrigerated delivery services in response to the growing need to deliver temperature-sensitive goods in the form of chilled parcels and frozen parcels. These specific types of temperature-controlled refrigerated delivery services can contribute to the ability of local food producers to expand their businesses and increase their sales channels.
