Container Loading Supervision (CLS) Service

Your Final Guarantee: Witness Your Products Loaded Correctly and Securely

A Container Loading Supervision (CLS) is the last on-site check performed as your products are loaded into the shipping container.

As a third-party inspection agency, our inspection team ensures the correct quantity of the correct products is loaded safely before the container is sealed. After a successful Final Random Inspection, CLS gives you final peace of mind that what you paid for is exactly what leaves the factory.

A CLS is your ultimate insurance against shortages, swaps, and transit damage. It is highly recommended when:

Shipping high-value or fragile goods

Working with a new or low-trust supplier

Needing proof of secure loading for insurance or banks

Wanting 100% certainty of the exact quantity shipped
