Cargo Insurance ALL RISKS

Freight Transportation Insurance

Freight Transportation Insurance

The Company Policy

During the transport analysis phase, Cargomar always offers its customers insurance coverage for goods in addition to that offered by the carrier. Thanks to the support of our insurance consultants, we analyze the needs of individual customers so as to be able to identify all risks and negotiate the right coverage to protect the goods.

It is possible to stipulate insurance contracts with tariffs associated with the type of goods subject to the return of the goods, covering not only the full value of the goods shipped, but also the accessory costs, the cost of the insurance itself and the profit hoped for in the non-sale, in compliance to international conventions on goods insurance in international transport.

Cargomar, and its consultants, assist the customer in all the phases relating to the stipulation of the policy, from the claim reporting activity (claim management) to the liquidation of the damage and compensation in respect of the pre-established deadlines.
