Sea Freight

FCL ensures better schedule flexibility due to a higher frequency of port sailings and we work with clients to position containers at their place of business to better provide flexible schedules to and from locations worldwide.

Less than container loads

Our less than container load (LCL) services, offer guaranteed
capacity, regular and frequent departures and a vast choice of
destinations – whether on intercontinental or short sea routes. We
achieve this by consolidating freight at chosen gateways on a regular
basis. These serve most destinations worldwide at least once a week.

LCL: Flat rack and open top containers

Door-to-door or port-to-port, we are experts in handling special equipment needs. This includes flat rack, open top containers, dry, temperature-controlled and refrigerated.

LCL: Cargo handling by reliable sea freight carriers

We operate a core carrier programme to make sure that cargo is handled in LCL containers by approved and reliable carriers. Our professional packing services ensure safe cargo handling at every stage of the supply chain.
