Lately there has been a public debate about use of fumigation of containers in the fight against pests and mold in transit. It is described that gases containing harmful substances like formaldehyde, methyl bromide and benzenes are used

Prime Cargo has for several years not been using gas as fumigation of the containers prior to shipment. Gassing was only used for transport of goods packed in wood that was not heat treated. Now a days we only use heat treatment prior to shipment

As we rely on shipping lines own containers or lease containers, we can obviously not give any guarantee for what happened to the container before it is transferred to our care

Should you have any questions, we kindly ask you to get in contact with your local Prime Cargo office

I den seneste tid har der været en offentlig debat omkring brug af gasning af containere i forbindelse med bekæmpelse af skadedyr og skimelsvampe under transport. Det er blevet beskrevet, at der har været anvendt gasser indeholdende sundhedsskadelige stoffer som formaldehyd, methylbromid og benzener

Prime Cargo har i flere år ikke benyttet sig gasning af containerne inden afsendelse. Gasningen blev kun benyttet i forbindelse med transport af varer emballeret i træ, som ikke var varmebehandlet. I dag benyttes udelukkende varmebehandling forud for afsendelse

Da vi benytter os af rederiernes egne containere eller af lejecontainere, kan vi selvfølgelig ikke stå inde for, hvad der er sket med containeren før den overgår i vores varetægt

Skulle der være spørgsmål eller kommentarer, beder vi dig kontakte dit lokale Prime Cargo kontor
