Containers Hapag-Lloyd and Marfret also handled via Secure Chain

To facilitate the secure and reliable release of import containers in the port of Rotterdam, Hapag-Lloyd is also connecting to the Secure Chain via Secure Container Release (SCR). Marfret has decided to start using the Secure Chain as well. Both shipping lines will inform their customers in more detail about this in the coming weeks.

With the participation of Hapag-Lloyd and Marfret in the Secure Chain, all major container shipping companies are releasing containers through the Secure Chain. The deepsea shipping lines that have already started to release their import containers via the Secure Chain (without the need for a PIN code) are: CMA CGM, COSCO Shipping, Evergreen, HMM, Maersk, MSC, ONE, OOCL, Yang Ming and ZIM. Only an inland operator that has been authorised through the Secure Chain is able to pre-notify its arrival at the terminal and collect the container.
