Insurance

Tailor-made transport insurance solutions from Rhenus protect the monetary value of your cargo against all risks of physical loss or damage caused by external factors during land, sea or air transportation. These solutions help you manage the financial effects of loss or damage efficiently. Because transportation routes do not all offer the same level of security and goods in transit are not equally sensitive to damage, the insurance services of Rhenus provide additional protection.

Your cargo is managed carefully and in line with the highest quality and handling standards. Our specialists deliver high-quality support for all repacking operations to ensure your goods remain fully protected during the entire process.

Neutralizing

We make sure that any markings identifying the actual vendor of your goods are removed while your delivery documents are added. Before forwarding, your entire shipment is unpacked, neutralized and repacked. Rhenus ensures that both the packaging of your items and the related documents comply with your specific requirements.

Sorting

Rhenus offers efficient sorting solutions designed around your individual requirements. Your air freight is sorted for each order in a specific area of our warehouse. Our highly qualified picking staff collect the sorted goods and process the order. Rhenus ensures accurate freight handling and reliable adherence to delivery schedules.

Smart monitoring

To ensure cargo protection, we provide multiple monitoring options for your air freight. Our tools allow you to oversee transportation processes and receive important information pertaining to your goods during transit, warehousing and handling. Using advanced technologies from trusted partners, Rhenus tracks your cargo through GPS together with temperature and light sensors. We also monitor acceleration, pressure, geo-fencing and shipment integrity to provide reassurance during the entire transportation journey.

Labeling

Rhenus applies additional labels to your freight based on your individual requirements. If product information is missing from the packaging or if you would like to include additional details pertaining to the goods on the labels, we will add and apply the labels quickly and easily to help prevent delays while supporting visibility, process control and efficiency across your supply chain.

Palletizing

We support the efficiency, stability and functionality of your freight by palletizing loose cargo boxes, including shrink-wrapping, according to standard air freight transport requirements. Smooth stacking and unstacking of your cargo is essential for quicker handling and minimizing damage, helping your air freight move more efficiently.
