Put a lid on product damage in your intermodal containers.
Why protecting products in containers is important.
When it comes to properly securing container-shipped goods, there are no second chances. Slack action, impacts, and load shifts during transit can result in more than just damaged product.
- Customer dissatisfaction
- Rejected loads
- Added costs for having to replace, salvage, or dispose of product
- Possible customer penalties and fines
- Risk of employee injury
- Lost sales
Intermodal containers present their own set of unique challenges to shippers. Our Down River® Load Securement Specialists have the products, experience, and knowledge to design a loadsecurement system for your specific needs.
