As part of our compliance surveys, we meticulously verify the vessel's suitability to transport your cargo during the pre-loading phase. Our thorough assessment ensures that all necessary criteria are met, guaranteeing a secure and compliant shipment process.<\/span><\/strong><\/span><\/pre>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

During our preloading surveys, we check the condition of your cargo by recording any visible damages before shipment or at the warehouse\/dock for insurance, carriers or freight forwarder\u2019s purposes. Subsequently, we supervise the tally of your charged cargo in order to ascertain the number of units loaded on board. We determine the number of packaged units (bundles of wood i.e.) as well as the weight of said cargo after the end of loading operations.<\/span><\/strong><\/pre>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

During pre-loading surveys of break-bulk cargo, we ensure that BLs and mate\u2019s receipts accurately note the apparent condition of your cargo. We also check the water tightness, condition and ventilation of the vessel\u2019s holds.<\/strong><\/span><\/pre>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

These are surveys that take place after\/during the arrival of cargo at the discharge port. We check and detect damaged cargo, packages, boxes and bags during unloading operations and report to you every update (pre-unloading). We also send you pictures of damaged cargo, labels and packages. Furthermore, we proceed to sampling in necessary conditions. You will be immediately informed of any damaging factor of cargo during discharging of your cargo. In case of damage we submit\u00a0 our own letter of protests against liable parties (owners, stevedores, transporters\u2026etc).<\/strong><\/span><\/pre>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t

Before loading cargo, holds must be examined for potential defects such as rust, insect infestation, oil sludge and water. Our mission is to check if the vessel\u2019s cargo compartments are clean, dry and ready to receive your cargo before loading can begin.<\/strong><\/span><\/pre>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
