US-based inspection body, the National Cargo Bureau (NCB), confirms that 55 per cent of inspected containers were non-compliant, 43 per cent failed due to poorly secured dangerous goods, and 6.5% were mis-declared dangerous cargoes. Consequently, NCB is encouraging broader participation from industry for a more comprehensive view on container risks globally, while container inspections are being offered to carriers free of charge.
