Good to know

In general, there are virtually no restrictions on which goods can be shipped by sea freight. From single cartons to entire industrial plants, we can offer you individual solutions for sea transport.

Certain hazardous goods can only be transported under strict conditions. In these and similar cases, our specialists will work with you to come up with a solution.

It is generally cheapest to ship goods over long distances by sea freight. Emissions are also the lowest compared to air freight and international rail transportation due to the size of the ships. In addition, sea freight offers increased flexibility for particularly bulky and large goods: the holds of the ships offer sufficient space for goods beyond standard containers.
