In the entire chain of air cargo transportation, warehousing services are a key node connecting both ends of cargo transport, not only undertaking the function of temporary storage of goods but also needing to integrate with air transportation " Efficient, precise, safe ” characteristics, providing professional and customized warehousing solutions. The following elaborates on the core content of air cargo warehousing services from four dimensions: warehousing type classification, core management processes, value-added services, and safety assurance.

1. Diversified Warehousing Types: Matching Different Cargo Characteristics and Needs

Air cargo involves a variety of cargo types with significantly different warehousing environment requirements. Therefore, warehousing services need to provide multiple types of storage spaces to meet the storage needs of different goods:

(1) General Cargo Warehousing

For general cargo without special storage requirements (such as clothing, electronic products, daily necessities, etc.), standardized ambient temperature storage space is provided. The warehouse maintains good ventilation, with temperature controlled at 15℃-25℃ and humidity maintained at 40%-60% , to prevent goods from mold, dampness, and other issues caused by abnormal temperature and humidity. The storage area is planned according to " zoning management and cargo location numbering ” principles, using shelf storage (such as light shelves, medium shelves) to ensure orderly stacking of goods for quick access, while reserving sufficient aisle space for forklift and pallet truck operations.

(2) Temperature-Controlled Warehousing (Refrigeration and Freezing) ）

Designed for goods requiring temperature control, such as fresh food (meat, seafood, fruits), pharmaceuticals (vaccines, biological preparations), chemical raw materials, etc., providing refrigeration ( 2℃-8℃ ), freezing ( -18℃ to -25℃ ) and deep freezing ( below -40℃ ) three temperature control zones, with precise temperature adjustment according to cargo needs. The warehouse uses professional insulated walls and sealed doors, equipped with imported temperature control systems (such as Danfoss, Emerson), which monitor and record warehouse temperature in real time, with data synchronized to online systems for customer access at any time. Meanwhile, the temperature-controlled storage area is independently partitioned to avoid cross-contamination with general cargo, and is equipped with backup generators and dual power supply systems to prevent temperature fluctuations caused by power outages, ensuring cargo quality. Emerson ），Real time monitoring and recording of temperature inside the warehouse, data can be synchronized to the online system for customers to access at any time. At the same time, the temperature controlled storage area is independently divided to avoid cross contamination with ordinary goods, and is equipped with backup generators and dual power supply systems to prevent temperature fluctuations caused by power outages and ensure the quality of goods。

(3) Dedicated Dangerous Goods Warehousing

According to the International Air Transport Association (IATA) "Dangerous Goods Regulations" and domestic dangerous goods storage standards, a dedicated dangerous goods storage area is set up, physically isolated according to dangerous goods classification (such as explosives, gases, flammable liquids, oxidizers, etc.). Each area is equipped with dedicated firefighting equipment (such as explosion-proof fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems) and leakage handling tools. Open flames are prohibited inside the warehouse, explosion-proof lighting and ventilation systems are installed, and floors use corrosion-resistant and anti-static materials to prevent environmental hazards caused by dangerous goods leakage. Additionally, warehousing management personnel must hold dangerous goods operation qualification certificates and strictly implement a dual-person dual-lock management system. All cargo inbound and outbound must be registered and recorded for full traceability. IATA ）According to the "Dangerous Goods Regulations" and domestic dangerous goods storage standards, a dedicated storage area for dangerous goods shall be established, physically isolated according to the level of dangerous goods (such as explosives, gases, flammable liquids, oxidants, etc.), and each area shall be equipped with exclusive fire-fighting equipment (such as explosion-proof fire extinguishers, sprinkler systems) and leak handling tools. Open flames are prohibited in the warehouse. Explosion proof lighting fixtures and ventilation systems should be installed, and the ground should be made of corrosion-resistant and anti-static materials to prevent environmental hazards caused by the leakage of dangerous goods. At the same time, warehouse management personnel must hold a dangerous goods operation qualification certificate and strictly comply with it " dual-person dual-lock ” management system, with registration and record keeping for all cargo inbound and outbound, ensuring full traceability.

(4) Warehousing for Valuables and High-Value Goods

For high-value goods (such as luxury goods, precision instruments, precious metals, artworks, etc.), high-security warehousing services are provided. The storage area adopts a " triple protection ” design: external perimeter walls and infrared alarm systems, internal installation of 24 24-hour high-definition surveillance (with no blind spots) and motion detection devices. Goods are stored in explosion-proof safes or enclosed exclusive storage locations, with security personnel 24 patrolling 24 hours a day. Upon storage, goods require " dual-person verification and photo archiving ” ; upon release, the identity of the consignee (such as ID card, power of attorney) must be verified and confirmed with the customer to ensure the safety and no loss of goods.
