What routes and modes of transport do you use for cargo delivery?
We work with sea, rail, road and air freight. Main destinations: China → Russian Federation/CIS, Middle East, Africa, Southeast Asia. The route is optimised to suit weight, dimensions and the chosen logistics basis.
- Sea containers (20’/40’/40’HC) — the standard method for batches from 15 tonnes
- Rail multimodal transport — the balance of cost and lead time for central Russia
- Road delivery (FTL/LTL) — urgent cargo and regional logistics
- Air freight — samples, high-technology equipment, critical deadlines
How do you handle sanctions restrictions and transit issues?
We use legal transit hubs in China, the UAE and Turkey with full customs support. Our foreign trade department handles customs processing, HS code classification and foreign exchange control. The guarantee of customs clearance and compliance with foreign exchange legislation are fixed in the contract.
What delivery terms and logistics bases do you apply?
We operate strictly under Incoterms 2020. The basis is selected at the commercial proposal stage and fixed prior to the advance payment. Responsibility for risks, freight and duties is clearly allocated.
