Transport Control
VWS Export - Import of Flowerbulbs continuously follows the exact process of containers, to check and improve the process and to avoid problems.
Here they program the temperature, air-ventilation and drains of the container in the harbour according to our instructions.
Also the PTI label with date is checked.
The truck driver of the container checks in the harbour if the empty container is clean and not older than 5 years. For insurance reasons the container must not be older than 5 years.
All three containers are ok. VWS prefers to transport 3 x 20ft container or one 20 ft + 1 40 ft container. This will cause less pollution to the environment.
The container is placed on the truck with a small forklift.Some more containers to go. Here they are standing on power to check if the containers are okay.
Loading at VWS of 3 x 20 ft containers for Australia.
Before loading we check the label, the temperature, air-ventilation and drains according to our instructions.
7,2°C is the temperature in the container at the moment and 1,5°C is the installed temperature.
In one 20 ft container we install two recorders and in a 40 ft container we install three. This is to check the temperature inside the container during the trip to its destination anywhere in the world.
When all container settings are checked and when they are correct we load the container in the loading dock.
The container is back in the harbour.
Ready to unload the truck, so the container can go on board.
By cranes they lift the full containers and bring it to their place.
Time for transport. If everything is allright and checked the containers are transported by boat and air transport.
