Transported Asset Protection Association (TAPA) Certification

Businesses that store and/or transport high-value goods, such as electronics, automotive, pharmaceuticals, clothing and state-of-the-art equipment, must implement robust measures to protect these items and the employees involved from various dangers, including theft and assault.

TAPA uniquely unites global manufacturers, logistics providers, freight carriers, law enforcement agencies and other stakeholders to establish leading security standards for the supply chain. The aim is to minimize transport crime, cargo theft and the loss of goods.
