Elephant Project
This one was a bit of a first for us - packing and shipping full size model elephant, in full armour, complete with Howder and model soldiers!
The 25ft high model was carefully dismantled and packed at Stratford Armories using specialist equipment, before being shipped to a new display site in Miami.
Aircraft
One of our more unusual jobs is packing helicopter blades prior to their shipment abroad.
If a helicopter is repositioning overseas then the blades are removed at port and carefully packed for the journey.
Propellor Shaft
When cruise lines need heavy engineering projects moving they call in the experts to do the job.
Here, Pacific Princess' 22 tonne shaft is being lifted off the lorry and into the factory using out specialist overhead crane facility, prior to being packed and shipped for renovation.
Secure Storage
We have a sizeable secure storage facility in Eastleigh which is ideal for larger goods that require short or long term storage.
Dangerous good shipping is a minefield! We are authorised to pack dangerous goods for transport by air, sea or road. We are happy to advise on which goods require special packing and documentation and the best method to enqure you conform legall,. Just Call!
Mast Packing
'Ran II' is one of the fastest yachts in racing and competes in regattas all over the world. When she needs her mast shipped, she calls on our MAST PACKING system for protection whilst in transit.
Our team recently met the yacht at the dock in La Spezia, Italy and arranged everything so that delicate masts and spars would be sure to arrive safely and ready to race.
The system is very popular with race yachts and works well with any industrial project that requires protection
Many famous yachts have employed the system including Leopard, Ran and Oyster.
Flight Cases for leading bands
We have been busy producing Flight Cases for many of the world's biggest bands, including Kings of Leon, Kylie, Take That and U2.
They are used to protect a variety of things, from musical and computer equipment to canteens, fridges, sofas, and show display equipment.
The system is very popular with race yachts and works
