Value Protect
Una solución para mantener tus productos protegidos de los riesgos relacionados con la logística.
What is Value Protect?
Even in the safest hands, accidents happen. When you're moving cargo across sea and land, you want to know you won't lose money if your shipment is damaged or lost — and standard terms of carriage don't always cover you. Transportation carriers are typically liable only for limited, legally-defined damage, which often falls far short of your cargo's real value. In many cases of fire, theft, or loss, they may not be liable at all.
Value Protect is a simple add-on that closes that gap. Applicable to all commodities, it extends your terms of carriage beyond the standard bill of lading to cover damage or loss that would normally be excluded — including fire and theft — and we waive our right to claim General Average contribution. You also get higher recovery limits on claims, paid out within 14 days of receiving the required documentation.
It takes one click to add during booking — no extra paperwork, just added peace of mind.
Whether you are transporting bananas or beans, we have a package suitable to your needs. Value Protect can be applied to all shipments and all commodities. Depending on your cargo’s commodity or value, you can find a package at the required compensation level to bring you peace of mind.
