Why would I worry about the safety of my cargo when shipping with a trusted carrier like Maersk?
We take care of every container we ship. However, some events might be outside of our control, such as extreme weather, fire, or perils of the sea, that may result in cargo loss or cargo damage.
International laws limit the liability of carriers and set limits on potential pay-out limits. We have worked with Zurich Insurance to bring you a product, Maersk Cargo Insurance, to protect your goods against all risks of physical loss or damage subject to the exclusions outlined below.
