DHL Global Forwarding, the air and ocean freight specialist of Deutsche Post DHL Group, has become the first organisation in the United Kingdom to be certified as an International Air Transport Association (IATA) Center of Excellence for Independent Validators Lithium Batteries (CEIV Li-batt).
The certification covers six sites — Birmingham, Glasgow, London, Luton, Manchester and Purfleet — and follows a rigorous certification process across these locations over several months, which included training for employees, as well as an on-site assessment and audit process, says an official release.
“The certification of our DHL Global Forwarding U.K. operations is only a first step,” says Thomas Mack, Global Head of Air Freight, DHL Global Forwarding. “We are already working on auditing and certifying other key facilities in our global air freight network. Electrification of the mobility sector is gaining momentum with lithium-ion batteries playing a key role. We gained a lot of expertise and know-how during the certification process and it will help us to provide first-class and highly secure transportation and storage services throughout our extensive global network.”
