Shipping of Containers

Container shipping is a standardized, secure and scalable transportation method that forms the backbone of international trade. It offers the most efficient solution especially for large volume, dense or long-distance shipments. Provides seamless integration in containers, road, sea, rail and even multi-mode systems; This enables uninterrupted transportation of loads from the point of production to the final consumer.

As Fatih Group Logistics, we are not only satisfied with the transportation process in our container transportation services; We manage each stage of shipment with a holistic approach to planning, picking, loading, customs clearance, international transit and delivery. Factors such as container type, routing, port coordination, and seasonal risk analysis are assessed each time specifically to the nature of your cargo and its target market.

Container selection is critical to cost efficiency and product safety. In this context, we offer our customers support in determining the type of container that best suits their needs:

• 20 feet dry container: up to 28-30 tons weight, suitable for 33 m3 volume; Ideal for general commercial products, packaged goods and heavy loads.
• 40 feet dry container: 26-28 tons carrying capacity, about 67 m3 volume; Suitable for light but bulky products (furniture, textiles, packaging materials).
• 40 feet high cube container: With a ceiling 30 cm higher than the standard 40-foot container; It offers a volume of up to 76 m3, especially preferred for products that can benefit from height.
• Reefer (cooled) container: It is critical for food, pharmaceutical and chemical products that provide precise temperature control between -25°C and +25°C.
• Open top container: The upper part can be opened with a crane; Suitable for heavy machinery or high products that need to be loaded from the top.
• Flat rack container: Side and front walls can be folded or removed; designed for special loads such as oversized equipment, construction machinery or industrial parts.
• The tank container: Used for the safe transportation of liquid, gaseous or powdery products (chemicals, foodstuffs, liquid fuels); It is made of stainless steel and complies with international safety standards.

Each type of container is certified in accordance with international standards (ISO, CSC) and technical control is carried out before transportation. In this way, both load safety and problems that may occur during transportation are minimized.

Another issue to be considered in container transportation, the balance of volumetric weight and actual weightIt is. If your cargo is light but bulky (e.g. textile or plastic products), the cost of transport can be calculated by volume. Therefore, packaging optimization is one of the most effective ways to save costs. Our logistics consultants help you maximize your load density by offering technical guidance in this regard.

Port selections also play a strategic role in maritime container transportation. For example, for shipments to Europe Rotterdam, Hamburg or Antwerp; For shipments to Central Asia, the ports of Novorossiysk, Poti or Bandar Abbas can be preferred. We provide both time and cost advantage by determining the most suitable port according to the nature of your route.
