Export Packing
read moreOur export packing service makes all the difference when trading internationally. For certain destinations if your freight is not packed appropriately using the right materials you will encounter serious delays for fumigation or even confiscation of goods if the wrong type of wood has been used. As part of our freight forwarding service, specialist packers are available to pack products using tanilised timber, heat treated timber or timber fumigated with Methyl Bromide which complies with the latest Chinese regulations.
Middle East
read moreOur increasing freight forwarding presence throughout the Middle East in recent years has proven to be a substantial part of our business and encompasses ships chartering for bulk cargoes such as Sodium Sulphate, Soda Ash and crude oils, in addition to the more traditional containerized and air freight cargo. With our global presence and Marco Polo agent network membership we have a strong emphasis on cross trade work moving volume tonnage weekly from USA, China and Europe to Saudi Arabia and the Gulf States.
Insurance
read moreWe feel it is commercially imprudent to merely rely on the limited marine insurance coverage that the carrying company offers, which is governed and therefore limited by the relevant conditions of carriage. If any loss or damage occurs during transit, you could find that your consignments are not fully covered and in any event negligence still has to be proven. In general, Marine insurance cover pays out against a claim and then liability is determined at a later stage by the Insurers involved.
