Blocking & Bracing

Service Details

Blocking & Bracing

Precision-engineered cargo stabilization to eliminate movement and prevent damage during the most turbulent journeys.

Blocking & Bracing

Even the best-packaged goods can be compromised if they shift during transit. Decency Shipping’s Blocking and Bracing service is a specialized safety protocol designed to counteract the G-forces, vibrations, and tilting experienced during sea swells, air turbulence, or sudden braking on the road.

We treat every container as a custom engineering project. Our team uses high-grade dunnage, timber, and specialized lashing systems to "lock" your cargo into place. This service is essential for heavy machinery, fragile glass, high-value electronics, and any irregularly shaped equipment that does not naturally fit the dimensions of a standard container.

Key Features & Benefits:

Custom Engineered Solutions: Every load is analyzed for its center of gravity to determine the most effective bracing points.

Premium Materials: We use heat-treated (ISPM 15) timber, heavy-duty air bags, and high-tensile polyester strapping to ensure maximum hold.

Damage Prevention: Significantly reduces insurance claims and "hidden" costs associated with cargo shifting and surface abrasions.

Compliance with International Standards: Our methods meet all IMO (International Maritime Organization) and regional transport safety regulations.

Load Stress Analysis: Strategically placing dunnage to distribute weight evenly, protecting both your goods and the structural integrity of the container.
