Temperature-controlled services

We provide temperature-controlled services, maintaining the proper ambient conditions for sensitive items. We have a loading/unloading dock located in a buffer zone before the storage cell to prevent temperature fluctuations in the storage area.

Transport

Transport services

Road freight for high-value goods, regulated products and urgent shipments across Italy — plus full air and ocean forwarding with complete customs and DGR documentation.

Moving luxury fragrance and cosmetics asks for more than trucks and containers. Every shipment is planned around the rules of the category — temperature stability, tamper-evidence, chain-of-custody and the certifications the destination demands.

Our fleet and our forwarding desk work side-by-side with the warehouse: labelling, packaging and documentation are executed in-house, so the driver and the customs broker receive exactly what the shipment needs to clear without friction.
