协会近期从会员处获悉有关因串味导致货物污染损害的索赔报告。这类污染通常因之前装载的货物或近期被熏蒸的货物而引起。
协会希望提醒会员，使用运输过危险货物，或兽皮的集装箱来运输食品、服装、日用商品、玩具、咖啡、棉布、动物饲料，或其他各种会吸收气味的商品，存在很大的风险，可能会导致货物遭拒和货物全部价值的索赔。

Containerised Cargo damage due to odour
The Club has recently received reports from Members concerning claims for cargo contamination damage caused by odours. This type of contamination is usually caused by previous cargoes or from cargoes that have recently been fumigated.
The Club would like to remind Member’s that shipping food products, clothing, household goods, toys, coffee, cotton, animal feed or various other commodities that can absorb odours in a container, which was previously used to ship dangerous goods (DG Cargo) or hides, is very risky and could result in the cargo being rejected and claims being filed for the full value of the cargo.
