Medical equipment shipping. Delicate, heavy, urgent.
Diagnostic equipment, hospital furniture, devices and spare parts: we pack to measure, handle customs and ship by air, road and sea, with a dedicated contact.
Equipment that cannot stand idle.
A medical device is often heavy, has shock-sensitive parts and carries a high value. That is why we plan packing, handling and transport mode before pickup, and choose air freight when a spare part has to get a stopped machine running again.

Questions about medical equipment shipping.
Who is responsible for the CE marking of medical devices?
CE marking is a requirement that falls on the device manufacturer, not on the forwarder. We take care of packing, transport and customs, and ask you for the documents that travel with the goods.
How do you ship an urgent spare part for a machine that is down?
By air, as an urgent shipment or a door-to-door express delivery, backed by our operational support at Malpensa and Linate. The sooner we receive dimensions, weight and address, the sooner we arrange the pickup.
Do you ship heavy hospital equipment?
Yes. We start from weights, dimensions and lifting points, build a custom crate if needed and choose a truck, a container or conventional cargo. For oversized units we organise abnormal loads with permits and route planning.
Can I temporarily export a demonstration unit?
Yes. Our customs department handles temporary export, useful for demonstration, trial or exhibition units that have to come back. We tell you which documents are needed before departure.
Do you insure equipment in transit?
On request we arrange All Risks insurance, which we recommend for high-value equipment. We need the value of the goods and the type of packing.
