When the scorching summer arrives, the continuous high temperatures bring a series of special challenges to international logistics. Whether it is the storage, transportation or distribution of goods, more meticulous planning and management are needed to ensure the smooth operation of the logistics chain.

In terms of goods storage, high temperatures can easily lead to the deterioration and damage of goods. For temperature-sensitive goods such as food and medicine, they must be stored in warehouses with temperature control functions, and the temperature and humidity must be strictly controlled to avoid problems such as microbial growth and drug failure caused by high temperatures. At the same time, for goods like electronic products and plastic products, high temperatures may affect their performance and appearance. They should also avoid prolonged exposure to high-temperature environments and take appropriate heat insulation measures.

The transportation process is a key difficulty in international logistics during hot weather. During road transportation, prolonged driving of vehicles can easily lead to problems such as tire blowouts and engine overheating. Drivers need to regularly check the condition of their vehicles and take measures to cool down the tires and replenish water in the radiator. When transporting by sea, the internal temperature of containers rises sharply under high temperatures and intense sunlight. For goods such as precision instruments and chemical products, heat insulation materials should be used to treat the containers, or special containers equipped with temperature control devices should be selected. In addition, when transporting goods by air, it is also important to note that high temperatures may affect the aircraft's load capacity and performance. Airlines need to adjust their transportation plans based on the actual situation.

In terms of personnel safety and efficiency, high-temperature weather cannot be ignored either. When logistics operation personnel are loading, unloading and moving goods outdoors, they are prone to heatstroke and other situations. Enterprises should reasonably arrange working hours, provide necessary heatstroke prevention and cooling items, ensure the physical health of employees, and thereby ensure that the operation efficiency is not affected.

When it's hot, every link in international logistics is fraught with a "high-temperature crisis". Only by fully recognizing these potential risks and taking scientific and effective countermeasures can we ensure the safe and timely delivery of goods in hot weather and maintain the efficiency and stability of international logistics.
