Comprehensive
Ocean Freight Services

    • Full Container Load (FCL): Ideal for large shipments, FCL provides security and exclusivity of container space, reducing the risk of in-transit damage and allowing greater control over the container contents.

    • Less Than Container Load (LCL): Perfect for smaller shipments, LCL allows you to share container space with other shippers, which can be a more cost-effective option for businesses that do not require a full container.

    • Specialized Cargo Handling: We handle a variety of specialized cargo, including hazardous materials, perishables, and oversized items, ensuring expert care and compliance.

    • Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo): RoRo services are used for shipping vehicles and machinery that are driven on and off the ship using ramps. This method is particularly useful for cars, trucks, trailers, and other wheeled machinery. RoRo offers an efficient, quick, and safe way of handling bulky, motorized cargo.

    • Breakbulk Shipping: Unlike container shipping, breakbulk involves cargo that must be loaded individually due to its oversized or irregular dimensions. It’s typically used for goods like construction equipment, large vehicles, or heavy machinery. Each piece is handled separately and secured on the ship’s deck or in the hold.

    • Refrigerated Shipping (Reefer): Reefer shipping uses temperature-controlled containers to transport perishable items such as food products, pharmaceuticals, and other goods that require specific climate conditions. This service ensures that sensitive items are maintained at the correct temperature throughout their journey, preserving their quality and extending their shelf life.

    • Tanker Shipping: This type of service is used for transporting liquid cargoes such as crude oil, chemicals, and liquid natural gas. Tanker vessels are specially designed to safely carry bulk liquids in large quantities. This shipping method is crucial for industries that require the movement of liquid commodities across long distances.
