Concealed damage
Definition
Concealed damage refers to damage that is not immediately visible or apparent upon receipt of goods in the supply chain. It may occur during handling, storage, or transportation and is not readily detectable without further inspection or unpacking of the goods. Concealed damage can result from mishandling, inadequate packaging, or other factors. It is important for supply chain participants to thoroughly inspect and document any concealed damage upon discovery to ensure proper claims and resolutions with the involved parties, such as carriers or insurance providers.
