Customer Advisory-Unsafe Trailer Design Not Accepted at Terminal

Dear Valued Customers,

Effective immediately, trailers equipped with rear safety guards that obstruct access to container locking mechanisms will not be accepted at our terminal. Such designs present safety risks and operational challenges during container handling.

Only trailers that provide clear and unobstructed access to the container locks will be permitted entry.

For your reference, please find attached photos illustrating:

• A rear safety guard design that restricts access to container locks
• The resulting obstruction to the locking mechanisms

We appreciate your cooperation in maintaining a safe and efficient terminal operation.

Yours faithfully,
APM Terminals Bahrain
