QUALITY AND SAFETY
To ensure that cargo always gets to its final destination safely, on time, and intact, Girteka Logistics constantly invests in the latest equipment and in trainings, and seeks certification for all its processes. These things also create great synergy among our departments.
Cargo tracking
We follow your shipment from door to door using GPS technology. For high-value cargo, a special security system automatically informs the relevant manager about any unplanned stops or route deviations. That way we can react in real time to resolve any problems that arise.
Cargo security
Girteka Logistics’s fleet and processes meet TAPA TSR level-1 requirements. All refrigerated trailers have additional locks to protect the cargo against breach or theft. Thanks to GPS tracking, we know when and how long a trailer’s door is opened and what the temperature is at all times. That enables us to react fast to any changes.
Transportation quality
To ensure that cargo isn’t damaged during transport, we invest in the newest trailers and fasteners which keep cargo stable at all times. In curtainsider trailers special edge protectors and non-slip mats are used. Reefer trailers have special vertical and horizontal supports which keep pallets from sliding during transportation.
