Prezados,
segue orientação da IATA para transporte de cargas perecíveis e com temperatura controlada.

Perishable Cargo
Perishable goods were among the first commodities carried by air. With years of operating experience, airlines have developed very effective handling techniques for chilled and frozen products, providing shippers with optimum, cost-efficient packaging methods for these time and temperature sensitive commodities.
IATA's Perishable Cargo Regulations
IATA's Perishable Cargo Regulations (PCR) is an essential reference guide for all parties involved in the packaging and handling of perishables for air transportation. It has been developed based on the experience of a number of major airlines and the scientific data supplied by research institutions.
CITES endorsement IATA's Perishable Cargo Regulations
In its Resolution for Transport of Live Specimens (Conf. 10.21), the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species (CITES) recommends that all parties dealing with the preparation and transport of live plant specimens follow the instructions provided by IATA's Perishable Cargo Regulations (PCR) and incorporate them in their national legislations.
Time and Temperature Management
The transportation of Time and Temperature sensitive goods is a core service offered by IATA airlines and affiliated freight forwarders or logistics service providers. These goods are originating from the Healthcare sector, indistinctive of their origins, Time and Temperature management is the overarching need that binds these highly distinctive commodities together.
The 12th edition of the PCR introduces new mandatory requirements for the transportation logistics of healthcare products such as the mandatory use of the time and temperature sensitive label as of July 1st 2012. These changes are the result of the collaboration by carriers with pharmaceutical companies and associations as well as other stakeholders in the supply chain, including but not limited to shippers, freight forwarders, terminal operators, ULD manufacturers, packaging & tracking and tracing companies.
The new requirements emphasize on the initial booking that triggers the process and the label is only intended to support the booking. Thus, shipments requiring temperature controlled service and booked as such must be labeled with the Time and Temperature label.
Current supply chain stakeholders involved in the transport of time and temperature sensitive healthcare products booked as temperature-controlled cargo may encounter issues with the implementation period for the Time and Temperature Label. Therefore, it is recommended that these issues are discussed and resolved on a one-to-one basis with their supply chain partners.
A “one-pager” communication (pdf) was sent to the industry to inform about the new requirements.
