Container Non-Opening Inspection and Screening System Commissioned at Logistics Center in Moscow Oblast, Russia

According to the press service of the Moscow Oblast Ministry of Investment, Industry and Science, the Selyatino Transport and Logistics Center (TLC), located in the Naro-Fominsk urban district of Moscow Oblast, Russia, has installed a modern inspection and screening facility to improve the efficiency of container cargo inspection and the level of transport safety.

The equipment enables rapid inspection of cargo inside containers without opening them, helping staff determine whether dangerous goods or related substances are present inside. Yekaterina Zinovieva, Deputy Prime Minister of Moscow Oblast and Minister of Investment, Industry and Science, stated that deploying such systems is one of the measures in the region to enhance the safety of cargo storage and transportation at container yards. According to the plan, another 5 to 6 similar systems will be deployed in Moscow Oblast before the end of this year.

Zinovieva noted that Moscow Oblast is advancing a new management model for container handling facilities, and inspection and screening systems have been listed as one of the recommended modern infrastructure elements for local logistics facilities.

The Moscow region is a major transport and logistics hub in Russia, accounting for approximately 25% of the country's total freight volume. Deploying IDK inspection and screening systems at key transport nodes will help strengthen the security capabilities of the freight transport segment.
