International Cargo Shipping
Naval transport (shipping), as one of the oldest transport systems, has appeared and developed thanks to the advantages it had in contrast with the other categories of transport. The maritime trade has increased fourfold in the last 40 years and it is expected to triple around 2020.
Naval transport consumes only one tenth of the fuel per ton/ kilometer necessary for the road transport. The expedition services begin with the analysis of the transport load. This allows us to find the optimal route coupled with the best alternative of time and price. We manipulate small, non-containerized loads, unify Less Than Container Loads (LCL) and organize transports of Full Container Loads (FCL), all according to your own needs.

Types of Cargo Appropriate for International Transport
Transport of palletized cargo
The pallet is a special structure on which the cargo is arranged, with a design especially conceived to be manipulated easily with the help of lift trucks or small cranes. These can be made of wood, cardboard, metal or plastic. The dimensions of the pallets are standardized, some differences appearing between the ones used in USA and the ones used in Europe (which are also called Europallets).
The cargoes that can be palletized include, but are not limited to:
- equipments (components, subassemblies, spare parts, etc.);
- electronics and home appliances;
- textiles (clothing, shoes, etc.);
- food (frozen, canned, dried, precooked, etc.);
- alcoholic and non-alcoholic drinks, bottled water, etc.
Bulk Cargoes
Bulk cargoes are those cargoes which are not packed in a standardized form: pallet or container. These can be divided into two categories according to their presentation: actual bulk cargoes and bulk cargoes by piece.
Actual bulk cargoes are those cargoes which are not packed in any form. This kind of goods are cereals, minerals (ferrous and nonferrous), coal, cement, wood, some chymical products (fertilizers, wood powders, granules and plastic pellets, synthetic fibers, etc.), food (potatoes, sugar, salt, seeds), crushed or sorted quarry products (sand, aggregates, rough stone), etc.
Bulk cargoes by piece are the goods packed in bags, boxes, ballots, barrels or other containers. In the same category come other products by piece, such as non-containerized vehicles and equipment.
Containerized Cargo Transport
Containerization is a standard system of packaging of different goods with the purpose of their intermodal transport.
The containers come in a number of versions and offer the possibility of road, rail, sea or air transport.
The types of goods which can be containerized include, but are not limited to:
- equipments (components, subassemblies, spare parts, etc.);
- textiles (clothing, shoes, etc.);
- steel materials (sheet, wire, steel rod, metal profiles, pipes, etc.);
