SEA FREIGHT SERVICE

In addition to road and air transport, SBI Logistics also offers Sea Freight services. This mode of transport is utilized to meet the needs of freight transportation, providing customers with more options and ensuring optimal delivery efficiency.

What is Sea Freight?

• Sea freight is a method of transporting goods that utilizes sea transport facilities and infrastructure.
• Common vehicles used are boats and equipment for loading and unloading goods, such as cranes.
• Infrastructure for sea transport includes seaports and transshipment ports.
• Sea transport is suitable for areas near the sea or ports.
• Due to the large size and tonnage of shipping vessels, sea freight is commonly used for importing and exporting goods in large quantities.

Advantages of Sea Freight

• Capable of transporting large volumes of goods.
• Wide range of vehicles and tools available to support transportation.
• Lower shipping costs compared to other modes of transport.
• Sea transport routes generally follow natural traffic routes, resulting in fewer obstacles compared to roads.
• High safety levels due to fewer collisions between cargo ships.
• Contributes to the expansion of international trade through sea transport.

Limitations of Sea Freight

• Delivery is not possible on land, so it needs to be combined with other modes of transport, such as road and air.
• It usually takes a long time, making it unsuitable for express delivery needs.

What items should be shipped by sea?

• With the exception of goods strictly prohibited from transportation in any form, almost all types of goods can be transported by sea.
• Goods with physical and chemical properties that are prone to moisture absorption, dangerous goods such as chemicals and solutions, and volatile goods such as powders.
• Goods that are easily affected by the environment, such as spices, tobacco, and tea.
• Goods that are not affected by other goods, such as construction materials and industrial materials.
• Additionally, sea freight also categorizes goods based on transportation modes:
• Transportation by container for general cargo.
• Transportation by barge for minerals, sand, stone, etc.
