In 2011, our USA partners introduced a revolutionary new method for stacking cars in containers which makes it possible to load three, four, or even five cars safely into an ocean container. The traditional method to stack cars in containers is to construct wooden ramps and load the cars onto those ramps, which is not only much more complicated and less safe, but also environmentally unfriendly. Our USA partners are the exclusive company in the US using this new system - called R-Rak - and is doing so in partnership with Trans-Rak International, the UK company that designed the system also holds the patents. Seakargo Ltd, and our American partners operate consolidated containerized shipping of used cars, with more than 1500 classic cars and other vehicles transported overseas every month.
