Post Event Update: LTH Logistics Visit

As part of A-CERTS’ goals to promote knowledge sharing in the field of emergency response management, A-CERTS organised an inaugural field visit to our member’s organisation to enable other members learning from the industries’ best practices.

Courtesy of LTH Logistics Pte Ltd, we visited their state-of-the-art chemical logistics facility in Jurong Island on 19 August 2019, Monday afternoon. Other than the rare opportunity to access Jurong Island which is gazetted as Protected Area, it was an educational session to learn how LTH Logistics manages the overall HSSE for both hazardous & non-hazardous products and most importantly, their emergency response capability within its premise.
