DRY CARGO

Food-grade cargo

 
We have an extensive inventory of reefer containers for food products that require refrigeration or freezing during transit. We also prepare our standard containers for other food-grade products to ensure we maintain the optimum condition of your cargo. Each container is dehumidified, offering you peace-of-mind that we can deliver your cargo in the same condition as it was received. For more detailed information visit our food and drink cargo page in the Industries section.
 
Rare and precious cargo
 
We understand that transporting rare or precious cargo can be stressful. When you work with MSC you can be assured that your cargo is travelling in safe hands, supported by a company with over 40 years of experience.
 
Please note that due to its bespoke nature, this service is subject to application. For further information please contact your local MSC agent.
