Cargo securing is a vital process that often gets forgotten, leading to cargo damage and loss. Failing to secure cargo can result in serious consequences including potential cargo theft.
Lashing is one of the primary methods of cargo security. Lashing employs binders and winches to secure cargo during transit and can be applied both outside and inside cargo containers.
Cargo securing system rules and arrangements typically rely on calculations or empirical models that take into account sea/road weather conditions on specific routes.
Lashing and Cargo Securing Services with Vessel Survey are designed to inspect and certify that cargo stowing/lashing complies with the set standards. Our Lashing and Cargo Securing Services offer quantity tally, verification of dimensions/sizes verification as well as equipment certification services.
Marine surveyors play a vital role in cargo inspection. An inspector evaluates whether equipment, machinery, containers or other items sent from shipper's warehouse to destination port are suitable for transportation safely - this ensures their safe transport without accidents or losses occurring along the journey. Qualified professionals should perform these inspections so as to guarantee safe passage for your goods during transport and prevent unnecessary incidents during shipment.
Surveyors must not only be knowledgeable of cargo inspection procedures, but also of shipping regulations. In particular, they must understand how to calculate forces that affect transport such as friction, horizontal force, impact force and compression force - in order to protect cargo it is crucial that lashing and securing services use equipment with adequate strength to counter these forces and the cargo securing manual should outline exactly how these equipment should be utilized properly for transit purposes.
Al Nowras provide essential maritime inspection services, including cargo stowage surveys, vessel condition reviews and cargo securing surveys. Vessel surveys play an essential role in maintaining marine vessel and cargo safety as well as meeting international maritime conventions. A vessel survey is the comprehensive examination of a ship and its equipment against standard requirements.

When transporting hazardous materials, having the appropriate equipment is critical to ensure its safe transport. Al Nowras can offer various services tailored to meet your shipping needs; including surveys for irregular cargo on flatracks or containers as well as dangerous or hazardous goods stored inside containers; we even conduct container vanning surveys to make sure your cargo is secure enough for shipping via sea, rail or road transport.
Lashing systems designed for specific vessels may not always be adequate to secure non-standard cargoes such as oversize project cargos or those on flat racks, therefore cargo securing manuals must be tailored specifically for such loads and strength of equipment calculated; including safety forces like friction, horizontal force, impact force and compression force calculations in order to determine maximum loading conditions and secure them correctly.
At Al Nowras, we provide clients with advice regarding the optimal way and method to secure their cargo, from advice on stowage arrangements and lashing methods. It is also crucial that cargo be secured properly so as to prevent its movement during transport.
