Value-Added Services for Ocean Freight

Ocean Freight Handling

Our highly qualified staff is capable of handling all types of cargo and modern equipment ensures a safe handling of your goods. For each size and duration, the Rhenus Group offers you storage availabilities for several days directly at your local Rhenus branch close to the seaport. Even longer-term storage can be facilitated through our in-house contract logistics specialists.

Rhenus Denmark repacks or resizes your individual shipment according to your needs. It is important to understand all handling specifics of every particular cargo type: Special conditions are required for repacking your cargo in seaworthy packaging that meets the conditions of maritime transport. The Rhenus Group assures the protection of your cargo, and meets defined quality and handling standards. Our specialists are ready to provide quality service for any category of cargo repacking operations.

Rhenus applies specific additional labels to the cargo as per your individual requirements. Did you forget product information on the packaging? Or do you want to provide additional information on labels for the goods? We add this and attach labels in a fast and uncomplicated manner to avoid delays and ensure transparency, process control and efficiency along your supply chain.

No matter how you transport your products, you need to be absolutely sure that they arrive in the intended condition and meet all relevant requirements. The Rhenus Group conducts an additional shipment inspection to offer you a professional review of the quality, quantity, labelling, packaging and loading of your ocean freight and help you to meet quality standards, technical specifications and contractual requirements.

Rhenus Denmark ensures the efficiency, functionality and stability of your cargo by placing loose cargo boxes (including shrink-wrapping) on a pallet according to common maritime transportation standards. Smooth stacking and unstacking of your cargo has a special importance in terms of quicker handling and less damage to move your freight more efficiently.
