01 / AIR FREIGHT CAPABILITIES

Optimized flight routing.
Hands-on terminal control.

Precision air logistics requires more than securing cargo space. We evaluate cargo characteristics, packaging integrity, transit deadlines and compliance standards to construct the most efficient flight path.

Scheduled capacity & direct IATA allocations

As an IATA-accredited cargo agent in Germany and the Netherlands, we book directly with carriers and match routing to your delivery schedule, with transparent commercial rates and priority uplift where space is confirmed.

Synchronized first-mile & customs execution

Air freight operates well when it is paired with ground support. We integrate factory collections, pre-carriage road feeder services, customs brokerage and bonded transit documentation into one transport plan.

Certified secure supply chain & special handling

As an approved Regulated Agent, we can maintain a secure supply chain from collection to departure. Cargo with valid security status that remains protected does not need to be screened again at the airport. Temperature-controlled cargo and dangerous goods (IATA-DGR) are handled where packing, classification and the carrier allow.

03 / CASE STUDIES

Complex cargo demands precision in the details.

Beyond airport-to-airport transport: retail-ready packing for shop delivery, heavy-lift crane handling for an industrial rotor, and dangerous-goods documentation correction for a battery return.

HEAVY-LIFT & PROJECT CARGO / UZBEKISTAN

7,850 kg industrial rotor: multimodal tarmac transfer and route management

Routed via Frankfurt-Hahn Airport (HHN), this oversized power-generation rotor travelled by truck and required coordinated crane operations at the cargo ramp. Transit and export documents were prepared for the multi-leg corridor via Baku (GYD). The rotor reached Baku; the onward flight to Tashkent (TAS) was scheduled next.

DANGEROUS GOODS (DGR) / BONDED TRANSIT

Lithium battery compliance remediation and bonded re-export

When a lithium-polymer battery consignment (UN3480, Class 9) returned from Seoul to Frankfurt with incorrect documentation, the team corrected the dangerous-goods declaration and cargo markings, completed bonded T1 transit clearance, and arranged onward air shipment to Shanghai under the trading company’s documents.
