More Than Just Transport: A Complete Logistics Solution

At Lumiship, we understand that successful logistics involves much more than just moving goods from Point A to Point B. It requires secure packaging, strict regulatory compliance, and risk management.

To ensure your supply chain runs seamlessly, we provide a comprehensive suite of Value-Added Services (VAS). We handle the critical details so you can focus on your core business.

1. Professional Packing & Palletizing

The safety of your cargo starts with how it is prepared. Improper packing is the leading cause of damage during transit. We offer industrial-grade packaging solutions tailored to your cargo’s fragility and destination requirements:

  • Custom Packing: Whether you need robust Wooden Crates for heavy machinery, secure Wooden Boxes for spare parts, or Plastic Wrapping for moisture protection, we build the protection your goods need.
  • Palletizing Solutions: We provide high-quality Wooden Pallets (ISPM 15 compliant for export) and Plastic Pallets to ensure your goods are handled efficiently by forklifts and stored safely.

2. Warehouse & Storage Solutions

Need a place to consolidate goods before export or store them upon arrival?

  • Warehousing: Our secure warehousing facilities provide flexible storage options. Whether for short-term transit or inventory management, we ensure your goods are kept safe and ready for the next leg of their journey.

3. Risk Management: Cargo Insurance

International trade carries inherent risks—from rough weather at sea to accidents on the road.

  • Comprehensive Cargo Insurance: Don’t leave your assets exposed. We arrange “All-Risk” insurance coverage to protect the financial value of your goods against loss, theft, or damage during transport.

4. Export Compliance & Treatment (Fumigation)

Many countries enforce strict biosecurity regulations to prevent the spread of pests. We ensure your shipment meets these international standards:

  • Fumigation: We provide certified fumigation services for wooden packaging and commodities, complete with the necessary certification to prevent rejection at the destination port.

5. Quarantine & Certification Services

Navigating the bureaucracy of permits and certificates can be overwhelming. Our team acts as your liaison with government bodies to secure all necessary documentation:

  • Phytosanitary Certificate: Required for plant-based products (agricultural produce, wood, etc.). We handle the inspection and issuance process with the quarantine department.
  • Plant & Animal Quarantine: Whether you are shipping fresh produce, seeds, or live animals, we manage the strict Plant Quarantine and Animal Quarantine procedures to ensure your cargo is cleared for entry or exit legally.
  • Certificate of Origin (COO): We assist in processing the COO (SKA), which is vital for proving the origin of your goods and potentially claiming tax reductions under Free Trade Agreements (FTA).
