Frequently Asked Questions

How can I make outbound shipping of medical devices and medical equipment more efficient?

We can help you optimise your inventory through more efficient shipping and logistics such as:

Mode Optimisation: We help boost transportation efficiency using ground, air and international packaging services, whether you need it the next day, the next week, early in the morning or at the end of day.
Increase Dock Efficiencies: Our ‘one-driver advantage’ means you have one driver for air, international and ground parcels, which means fewer lorries at your dock.
Flexibility: We can provide both lorryload and less-than-lorryload freight options for standard and urgent delivery.
Risk Mitigation: We offer a variety of insurance and packaging options
