CH Robinson opens second air freight screening facility

CH ROBINSON, a Fortune 500 provider of multimodal transportation services and third-party logistics (3PL), has announced that the company has opened a new state of the art certified cargo screening facility (CCSF) in Los Angeles County's Carson City.

This is the second CCSF operated by CH Robinson, the first having opened in Chicago in April 2012, said a company press release.



CH Robinson's in-house screening facility includes 20,000 square feet of warehouse space, state of the art screening machines, and a dedicated air freight team to screen air freight that moves through the facility. 



The facility is tied directly to Navisphere, the company's global technology platform, allowing customers to track their freight before, during, and after the CCSF. This adds a level of visibility that is often missing during the screening process.



In 2010, the Transportation Security Administration at all air cargo be scanned to the piece level before loading on a passenger aircraft, which is most commonly handled by the airlines or third party facilities.
