We carry huge ocean transport volumes of machinery and machine tools. Consignments can vary from individual machine tools to full production lines or even whole factories, with sizes and weights that may differ with each shipment. Often fitted with sophisticated electronics, these loads require careful handling.

Every transport move needs to be well planned and competently executed to prevent damages.
