Benefits of Choosing AEGIS Sea Freight Services
Cost-effective: Compared to other freight methods, sea freight is a cheaper method. When transporting heavy goods, it is the best and six to ten times cheaper option than other freight, like air freight. Because it uses large vessels to transport larger goods over long distances. We can take multiple cargos when the trade routes of these clients coincide. This also reduces costs for those clients.
Environment-friendly: It consumes less fuel than other transportation modes, and it is the most carbon-efficient option. The carbon emissions from ships are only 2.7% of those from air freight. This makes sea freight more eco-friendly than other shipping methods.
Best for heavy cargo: Heavy cargo, like large vehicles, equipment, machinery, and construction materials, can be easily transported by sea, which can't be transported by air freight. Sea freight shipping at AEGIS can accommodate whatever the size of your shipments.
Safe Transportation: It is designed to carry dangerous sea freight cargo safely and securely. We pack everything well and lock it for more security. Our team is well trained in handling these kinds of goods.
LCL and FCL: We offer LCL (less than container load) and FCL (full container load) features in our sea cargo service for your goods. LCL is good for goods that are too small to fill the shared container, and FCL is good for goods that fill the entire container, so your bulky goods will be transported in a separate container.
