DEDICATED TO EXCELLENCE

We have a proud history of transporting cargoes that require special handling and stowage, such as pulp, aluminium, orange juice or granite, including conventional bulk.

The decks of our open hatch ships – the world’s largest fleet – are perfectly suited for project cargo. Their box-shaped holds with wide hatch openings offer efficient stowage and safe transport, and our onboard gantry and jib cranes speed up loading and discharge.

Each year our ships make thousands of port calls in more than 70 countries across five continents. Our terminals and logistics services take our dedication to detail right through the supply chain. And our people, ashore and onboard, make it all happen.

Our business

As a global shipping business, we support a wide range of industries with high quality transportation services through our various companies and joint ventures.
