Air Freight
Best for urgent, lightweight or high-value goods. Transit is measured in days rather than weeks, at a higher cost per kilogram. Ideal for samples, spares and time-critical orders.

Freight modes
Sea Freight
The most economical option for bulk and heavy cargo. Full container load (FCL) gives you an exclusive container; less than container load (LCL) lets you share space and cost with other shippers.
Break-Bulk
For machinery and cargo too large or heavy for standard containers. Goods are loaded individually onto the vessel, requiring specialist lifting, securing and port planning.
Container types
| Container | Typical use |
|---|---|
| 20ft Standard | Heavy, dense cargo such as machinery parts, steel and minerals. |
| 40ft Standard | General cargo and palletised goods with larger volume. |
| 40ft High Cube | Light, bulky cargo needing extra height. |
| Open Top / Flat Rack | Oversized machinery loaded by crane from above or the side. |
| Refrigerated (Reefer) | Temperature-sensitive goods such as pharmaceuticals and produce. |
