Our Ocean Freight Services
Container ship carrying cargo
01 / CONTAINER SHIPPING

Full Container Load (FCL) Shipping

FCL shipping is an established ocean freight option for consignments requiring a dedicated shipping container.

Flair Shipping arranges international FCL transportation for commercial merchandise, industrial materials, machinery, equipment and other eligible cargo.

Freight containers ready for transport
02 / CONSOLIDATED CARGO

Less than Container Load (LCL) Shipping

LCL shipping allows smaller consignments to move through consolidated ocean freight services without requiring an entire shipping container.

It can be a practical solution for businesses shipping smaller quantities of commercial goods, spare parts, equipment and other compatible cargo.

Heavy cargo handling at a port
03 / SPECIAL CARGO

Breakbulk & Non-Containerised Cargo

Some cargo cannot be transported in conventional shipping containers because of its dimensions, weight or handling requirements.

We arrange breakbulk and non-containerised transportation for suitable industrial machinery, heavy equipment, structural components and other unconventional cargo.

Commercial vehicles and transport equipment
04 / VEHICLE TRANSPORT

Roll-on/Roll-off (RoRo) Shipping

RoRo shipping is a transportation method for eligible vehicles and wheeled equipment that can be moved onto and off specialised vessels.

Enquiries may involve passenger vehicles, commercial vehicles, trucks, construction machinery and compatible rolling equipment.

Oversized industrial freight and containers
05 / OVERSIZED CARGO

Out-of-Gauge (OOG) Cargo

Out-of-gauge cargo exceeds the dimensions accommodated by standard shipping containers and may require specialised equipment or alternative transportation arrangements.

Transportation options may include flat-rack containers, open-top containers or non-containerised vessel arrangements.

Refrigerated shipping containers at a port
06 / SPECIALISED CONTAINERS

Refrigerated & Specialised Container Shipping

Certain goods require equipment designed for temperature control or other specialised transport conditions.

Flair Shipping arranges refrigerated container transportation for eligible temperature-sensitive cargo, subject to the commodity, equipment availability, carrier acceptance and applicable handling requirements.
