Our Sea Freight UK Products

We give both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) administrations for your shipments, just as out-of-measure and break mass administrations for your non-containerized freight.

FCL (Full Container Load)

Based on carrier routing options, FCL is our best transit-time-to-cost combination product for full container loads. FCL offers total calendar adaptability, a high recurrence of sailings per port-pair, and accessibility of hardware. We position holders at your office to accommodate your calendar and offer adaptable timetables to and from areas worldwide to meet even the most requesting transportation prerequisites. Whatever the destination, we will deliver your cargo on time and within budget – across borders, across continents and across the globe.

LCL (Less-than-Container Load)

We give both Full Container Load (FCL) and Less than Container Load (LCL) administrations for your shipments, just as out-of-measure and break mass administrations for your non-containerized freight LCL containers are carefully planned and loaded in our own network. We consolidate freight at our dedicated gateways on a regular basis and serve most destinations worldwide at least once a week.

Container dimensions & specifications – 20ft or 40ft

20 ft container is defined by its length though there is a lack of standardisation in regard to height, ranging between 4 feet 3 inches (1.30 m) and 9 feet 6 inches (2.90 m), with the most common height being 8 feet 6 inches (2.59 m).Also, it is common to designate 45-foot (13.7 m) containers as 2 TEU, rather than 2.25 TEU.

Additionally there is a standard container with the same width but a doubled length of forty feet called a 40-foot container, which equals one forty-foot equivalent unit (often FEU or feu) in cargo transportation.

Load bearing of container stacking is at the 40-foot corner stone couplings. In order to allow stacking of these types a forty-foot inter-modal container has an exact length of 40 feet (12.192 m), while the standard twenty-foot inter-modal container is slightly shorter having an exact length of 19 feet 10.5 inches (6.058 m).

The maximum gross mass for a 20-foot (6.1 m) dry cargo container is 24,000 kilograms (53,000 lb). Subtracting the tare mass of the container itself, the maximum amount of cargo per TEU is reduced to approximately 21,600 kilograms (47,600 lb).

Similarly, the maximum gross mass for a 40-foot (12.2 m) dry cargo container (including the 9-foot-6-inch-high (2.90 m) cube container) is 30,480 kilograms (67,200 lb).After correcting for tare weight, this gives a cargo capacity of 26,500 kilograms (58,400 lb).

Twenty-foot, “heavy tested” containers are available for heavy goods such as heavy machinery. These containers allow a maximum weight of 67,200 pounds (30,500 kg), an empty weight of 5,290 pounds (2,400 kg), and a net load of 61,910 pounds (28,080 kg).
