FacebookTwitterEmailLinkedin Britannia P&I Club has issued a loss prevention insight regarding the importance of cargo ventilation and best practices for executing it. According to Britannia, proper ventilation is instrumental in preventing the deterioration of cargo, by removing excessive moisture and minimising the formation of sweat. Ventilation is also required for some cargoes to disperse hazardous gases emitted by the cargo, such as carbon dioxide, carbon monoxide and methane.
