After nearly thirty years of improving postal services in Europe, CEN/TC 331 ‘Postal services’ is joining CEN/TC 320 ‘Transport - Logistics and services’, which is thus acquiring a reviewed scope and title as ‘Transport, Logistics and Postal Services’. This transition marks a new chapter for standardization in transport, logistics, and postal services.
Postal services are important players in Europe, both in terms of the turnover they generate and the large number of employees, and in terms of new consumption patterns, associated with the digital age, which represent on the one hand a challenge for the postal sector, and on the other hand opportunities, particularly in the parcel and express market.
