Delivering dry is part of your product

Under FOB or CIF the transit risk may sit with your buyer — but claims, recourse and lost repeat business land on your desk. Seaworthy packing including moisture protection is what your contract, and your reputation, expect from you.

Your stake

Four reasons the box you pack is your business

Seaworthy packing is your duty

Sales contracts require packing suited to ocean transport — including moisture protection appropriate to route, season and cargo.

D-terms: the risk stays yours

Under DAP or DDP you carry every transit risk until the goods reach the buyer's gate — container rain included.

Claims and recourse

If inadequate packing caused the damage, buyers can hold you liable even after the risk has formally passed.

Dry delivery as a selling point

Documented desiccant use signals quality, prevents disputes and wins repeat orders in price-sensitive markets.

Document your desiccant use

Record type, quantity and placement — ideally with photos taken before sealing. In a dispute this is your proof of seaworthy packing, and towards insurers it defuses the packing exclusion 4.3.

We dimension the desiccants for your shipments

Route, season, cargo, container size: we calculate the quantity that actually protects — and supply the matching products.
