Cargo protection since 1996

Cargo is most vulnerable while it travels

SECAL protects containerised cargo against the three risks that ruin a shipment in transit: moisture, movement and temperature. Container desiccants, silica gel, dunnage air bags, composite strapping and USB temperature loggers — with the technical advice to size them correctly.

What we protect against

Container desiccants

Stop container rain. Certified absorption of 307% at 60 °C and 90% RH — more than three times their own weight in water.

Silica gel sachets

Moisture control inside the primary pack: 1 g, 2 g and 26 g sachets for boxes, cartons and barrier bags.

See the range →

Dunnage air bags

90 × 180 cm bags that fill the void between pallet stacks and stop the load from shifting at sea.

See the range →

Composite strapping

32 mm composite strap with wire buckles for X-pattern lashing to certified anchor points.

TECHCAL USB loggers

Single-use USB temperature recorders — independent evidence of the cold chain inside a reefer.

Free tools: size the protection before you load

Five calculators built on the same criteria our specialists use when they plan a stow. No sign-up to run them, no software to install.

Dunnage air bags

How many bags the real void between stacks requires, and at what level.

Calculate →

Composite strapping

How many straps your X-pattern lashing needs, by friction and anchor points.

Who we are

For three decades SECAL specialists have worked alongside exporters at their cargo’s most vulnerable moment: the voyage. After years beside the leading brands in the field, and after seeing at first hand hundreds of claims caused by moisture and by movement, we learned what actually works in a container — and what only works in a brochure.

SECAL exists because of that: a line of cargo protection products backed by technical support, sized with published criteria, and supported by certificates of analysis rather than round numbers.

Why exporters choose SECAL

Figures you can defend

Every claim we publish carries its test condition. Our container desiccants absorb more than three times their weight in water — 307% at 60 °C and 90% RH, per the certificate of analysis. We do not publish ceilings we cannot prove.

Sizing, not just supply

The quantity matters as much as the product. Our calculators and best-practice guides are public, so you can check the arithmetic before you buy, and a specialist validates the edge cases.

Integrated protection

Moisture, movement and temperature travel together in the same container. We cover the three, so nobody has to coordinate three suppliers over one shipment.

Stock and lead time

Local stock of the main lines, and production planning with our factory partners for volume programmes and private-label requirements.

A note on evidence. When a claim is rejected, insurers look for whether the cargo was protected and whether the protection was adequate for the voyage. Our best-practice guides and the When insurance does not pay series document real cases where that question decided the outcome.

Distribution partners

We work with one exclusive distributor per country and are currently expanding across the Americas. Partners get preferential volume pricing, technical training, sales material and direct access to our specialists.

Commodity, container type, route and transit time are enough for our team to recommend the protection your cargo needs and quote it.
