Container stowage - comprehensive load securing in transport

Container stowage is a professional way of securing the transport of goods by sea, land or rail. The process involves the proper stowage and immobilisation of cargo in a container to minimise the risk of damage during transport. Our stowage service is aimed at companies involved in international trade, logistics and industrial transport.

Container stowage - what is it used for?

Proper stowage of containers ensures that the cargo arrives at its destination intact. Improper stowage of goods can lead to mechanical damage, shifting of cargo and even destabilisation of the container. For this reason, stowage is one of the most important procedures in the logistics process to maintain the correct centre of gravity of the container.

Particularly such complex procedures as relocation of machinery require a great deal of attention when packing and placing heavy loads, which are industrial equipment and machinery.

When stowing, factors such as the type of cargo, its weight, shape and also its sensitivity to weather conditions are taken into account. We consider all these variables and then proceed to create a safe transport environment. The customer gains perfectly secured machinery and their risk of financial loss is minimised.

Stowing and securing cargo in containers - proven safety technology

The process of stowing and securing cargo in containers involves several steps. Firstly, we carry out an analysis of the type of goods to be transported and select the appropriate securing materials, such as lashing straps, chocks, anti-slip mats or protective films.

Our specialists then proceed to position the cargo correctly in the container, ensuring that the weight is evenly distributed.

We offer outsourcing of employeeswho are experienced in stowing a wide variety of cargo. We only use certified fastening systems to carry out our work. We use shock absorption and vibration protection technology. 

Each of the securing methods we choose is tailored to the specific characteristics of the goods being transported.

Stowing cargo in a container - safety first

Stowing cargo in a container is not only about the arrangement of goods, but also about the use of advanced lashing and securing techniques against adverse external factors. At Relopack, we use state-of-the-art securing systems to ensure maximum transport safety.

Every stowage process begins with a detailed load distribution plan that is tailored to the type of goods being transported. The use of appropriate protective materials, such as shrink films, anti-slip mats or corner guards, provides an additional layer of protection.
