    About the certification

    Protect your cargo and strengthen your supply chain with TAPA (Transported Asset Protection Association) certification. Designed to help address cargo theft and supply chain disruptions, TAPA provides security requirements for goods at facilities, on the road, and at parking locations.

    The requirements cover three key areas:

    • Facility Security Requirements (FSR): Strengthen security at facilities where goods are stored and handled.
    • Trucking Security Requirements (TSR): Protect cargo during road transportation.
    • Parking Security Requirements (PSR): Enhance security at parking locations.

    By applying these requirements, your organisation can reduce security risks, protect valuable assets, and build confidence among customers and business partners.
