Measure how much value a shipment carries per kilogram and reverse the calculation when planning a target-value transport load.
Gold can carry substantial value in a relatively small mass. That can influence insurance, chain-of-custody, security and handling decisions far more than simple freight weight would suggest.
When evaluating transportation economics, use the gross weight that the carrier actually handles. Net gold weight is useful for metal analysis but can underestimate the logistical footprint.
Shipment value divided by relevant weight.
It changes the economics and security profile of transport.
Use gross weight for transport analysis.
Yes.
