Shipping container protection, how to protect your goods

Before loading the goods into the container, they can be prepared to limit movement and prevent thefts.

This product allows the palletized goods to be compressed to limit movement, as well as prevent the goods becoming unbalanced that can lead to stress on goods or unbalance container loads.

Pallet labels are large and used to provide enhanced security for wrapped or banded pallets by protecting the goods to prevent unwrapping. This label provides a tamper evident security message on the application if removed, clearly alerting the user when inspected.

Our lashing systems are available in various types to provide different strengths to meet requirements as well as having different points to secure within the containers. The woven 2-point lashing systems are used to brace the goods by tensioning the strap between both sides of the container at the various lashing points throughout the container for flexible application. This system provides a linear strength of up to 5000daN with strap widths ranging from 32mm-40mm, as a result system is DNV GL for load restraint assemblies so is assured to secure your cargo above the break strength requirements.

The N5 lashing system is a preassembled system that anchors itself to 4 lashing points with sewn on hooks to secure the container doors preventing forward movement or goods spilling out when unloading container. This system is easy to handle and is available in two lengths 2400mm long ribbon is for use in standard height containers and the 2600mm long ribbon is used for high cube containers.

We provide dunnage bags in both woven and paper options that are available in a range of sizes from 60x90cm to 120x225cm allowing a perfect fit for the type and size of cargo that needs securing. These bags allow excellent air tightness under pressure making them ideal for filling voids preventing movement or tilting in transport even under shock. These solutions also have the benefit of using a mega flow Venturi inflator increasing air-fill efficiency by 30-40% using less compressed air for fast inflation. As well as the plastic used in these bags is 100% recyclable and environmentally friendly.

The MOST device is a cargo monitoring device that is placed inside the shipping container when fully loaded. Once pre-calibrated with the acceptable parameters, this sensor will track position, light, temperature, shock, and humidity allowing customized alerts whenever the levels are infringed. The device uses a GSM modem network for updated reports throughout the journey for measurement of all external influences. It supports the optimization and protection of the supply chain by highlighting potential issues with accurate date which can then be used to take proactive action if required.

We supply container desiccant bags that are available in bag or pole form that allow easy application by simply lying them onto of the goods or hanging them from lashing points. This solution absorbs the excess moisture in the air allowing control of the humidity that is caused by changes in the internal temperature of the container. This prevents the issues caused by prolonged exposure to moisture such as damages to packaging or labels as well as the development of mold or mildew that spoils goods.

This Bar security seal is made from high-strength steel that is used to secure the containers central bars using adjustable locking positions and a bolt seal allowing greater flexibility when sealed. It features identical sequential numbers on the bar and bolt seal which are etched with permanent laser marking for improved security.

This Container Bolt seal features a metallic pin and bush to provide high strength for increased security, with the option of an angled or straight pin. This seal is etched with permanent laser marking for serial number, barcodes and customer name/logo’s which cannot be removed or replaced.

The Klicker 2K features hardened steel pin and bush that is over-molded in high impact ABS which provides a high level of tamper evidence. The ABS material will discolour when manipulated, clearly signifying attempts to tamper with the seal. The two-colour design allows a white marking area that not only makes marking clearer and easier to read, but gives improved product definition. The pin and bush are etched with identical sequential numbers which prevents parts being substituted or replaced.  This seal provides the highest level of security for containers whilst providing excellent protection against tampering.

The MCLZ 5mm cable seal is a thick cable seal designed to provide strong protection against unauthorized access to containers. The non-preformed galvanized wire will fray when cut thus preventing reapplication. One end of the cable is secured to the lock body and protected by a protruding wire guide. The other end of the cable is locked in place with a non-linear insert hole with a locking mechanism that prevents shim attacks or attempts to pick the lock. The Zinc lock body is over-moulded with shock-proof ABS which provides clear evidence of tampering if manipulated. It also provides a stable surface for clear permanent laser marking of a seal number, bar code or logo etc.

The MCL 5mm cable seal with a ribbed pattern on the lock body that protects marking during rough handling. The anodized finish allows for solid colors and provides additional protection against corrosion from salt, water and air. The markings are etched with permanent laser marking to offer the highest marking protection and additional resistance to removal. The cable is fixed to the lock body at one end with the other end using a one-way locking mechanism for fast and easy sealing.
