From Copenhagen to Hong Kong

Danish provider Scan Global Logistics (SGL) is continuing its expansion strategy and acquiring Sea-Air Logistics (SAL), effective 5 July 2022. SAL is an air and ocean freight logistics provider headquartered in Hong Kong.

Nine months ago, SGL acquired SAL's longstanding partner, Horizon International Cargo (UK, USA, The Netherlands, Spain and Japan). The takeover is to help SGL further expand its business into technology, pharma & healthcare and other markets.

"An increased market share in Intra-Asia, Far- East Westbound and Trans-Pacific Eastbound trade lanes, coupled with SAL's vast experience in cross-border supply-chain services, will enable SGL to extend and improve its portfolio," said Robert Rankin, managing director of SAL. He will stay on board, as will SAL's 180 employees, and report to Rickard Ingvarsson, CEO Asia. SAL was established in Hong Kong in 1995. (sh)

The First block charter Train consisting of 52 x 40’ rail containers operated by SAL Sea-Air Logistics from St Petersburg to Tianjin in May 2021.

SAL Successfully completed this first trial of operating a block charter Train for one of our major clients, Chep and a second train will depart on the 31st May 2021 from St Petersburg to Shanghai.

The environmental reduction in emissions as an alternative to the usual ocean shipping is approximately 60% and the accurate transit time enables predictive supply-chain planning which is especially relevant in today’s changing vessel services - it would be almost impossible to load 52 x 40’ containers on one single vessel for one client.

New Fenders for the American Naval Base in Japan, US Naval Base Yokosuka, shipped by Sea-Air Logistics (Shanghai) Ltd from South Korea and delivered to the Naval Base by sister company, ホライゾンインターナショナルカーゴジャパン㈱ / Horizon International Cargo Japan Ltd.

The Fenders are pneumatic and will be filled with compressed air to a pressure of 50 kpa before being placed in the water as Floating Pneumatic Rubber Fenders for Ship Protection alongside the docks at the US Naval Base Yokosuka,

We thank very much the US Naval Base Yokosuka for their kind and most helpful co-operation and to ホライゾンインターナショナルカーゴジャパン㈱ / Horizon International Cargo Japan Ltd.

Regulated Air Cargo Screening Facility RACSF Number RF0002-0 issued by the Hong Kong Civil Aviation Department on the 14th June 2019.

SAL has it's own dual direction pallet sized x-ray machine, in one of Hong Kong's first off airport security screening locations operated by SAL under the auspices of the Hong Kong Government owned AVSECO (Aviation Security Company).

This places SAL in a leading position to comply with ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organisation and part of the United Nations - UN) which mandates 100% screening of all cargo from Hong Kong from 2020.

Please see the photo which shows the Hong Kong Customs Department in attendance to calibrate the machine at the time of installation at SAL's own warehouse at Tsing Yi.

90 tonne floating dock transported by SAL Shanghai to Oakland with berthing alongside & direct delivery at both the loading & discharge ports of Shanghai & Oakland respectively.

This is the surveyor's report and details all of the steps taken by Sea-Air Logistics to ensure safe loading, safe transportation across the Pacific Ocean and safe unloading with the Customs Clearance arranged in advance of the arrival of the vessel (an absolute necessity to enable direct delivery from the ocean going vessel to the barge alongside).

Throughout the loading SAL appointed the professional surveyor company, Deehun Marine Surveyors Co Ltd with the Port Captain Xu who has worked for SAL for over 20 years in his professional capacity to supervise the preparation and loading of project cargoes.

And at destination, SAL appointed the TT Club surveyor for the Oakland Port area to supervise the unloading and direct discharge of the floating dock.

“Hi Rob,

I would like to thank Sea-Air Logistics for their continued support of HK Scottish throughout this season and last. We are so dependent on the support of our sponsors and the assistance that we receive has allowed us to develop the Club on and off the pitch over the 3 years of the Club's existence. We are continually trying to be the most innovative and cutting edge club in HKG which will hopefully result in greater exposure for our sponsors and create a club that companies look to be associated with.

Thanks once again.

Kind regards
Dave

Jason Zhang and Daniel Chen (Manager at our Shanghai Offices) were present to personally oversee a shipment for an American client being loaded at Nanjing Airport. On November 11th our people had permits to access the aircraft and its vicinity to oversee the loading procedure.

This was the 2nd longest piece loaded from Nanjing airport at 11.80m.
The cargo is to be used in a plant being constructed for re-cycling materials in Bolivia.

Donghai Bridge rises from the depths, an important part of the first phase of the Yangshan Deep Water Port Project serving the Yangshan Deep Water Port Area.
The two-way, six lane, 31km (20 mile) bridge opened in December 2005 and is China's first sea crossing bridge and will be the longest in the world until the nearby 22-mile Hangzhou Bay Transoceanic Bridge is completed in 2008.
The structure connects Shanghai to Yangshan Island, set to become China's first free-trade port and the world's largest container port.
