Keimelmayr: Sea freight by container
With our sea freight business segment, we open up an international perspective for your goods traffic. In sea freight, the container is the standard transport unit; it not only acts as a unit of volume, but also facilitates logistics processes. Sea freight container dimensions are ISO standardised, thus making it possible to establish a continuous transport chain from the consignor to the consignee.
Sea freight containers are stackable, can be loaded and reloaded seamlessly and thus enable transport processes that are as friction-free and optimised as possible. When it comes to the size of cargoes in sea freight containers, there are two main loading types, which are also reflected in our offer: FCL (Full Container Load) and LCL (Less than Container Load) cargoes.
Sea freight containers: difference between LCL and FCL
In the case of an FCL load, we transport a complete container, the capacities of which you utilise to the full. FCL cargoes are therefore particularly suitable for large quantities of goods shipped at the same time. If you have a smaller transport volume to ship in the course of your transport project, you need an LCL load so that your consignment can also be shipped as general cargo.
