Fragile, off-balance, and overlength – no problem for MSC Project Cargo 💪✈️ In this video, Bob Langerak, Project Cargo Manager at MSC Netherlands, takes us behind the scenes of a complex move: 8 passenger bridges – the walkways from the terminal to the airplane – shipped from Yantian to Rotterdam, before heading to Munich Airport. While the total weight was close to 300 metric tonnes, it wasn’t the weight that made this move challenging – it was the fragility of the cargo, made up of over 50% glass, combined with an off-centre centre of gravity and tight spacing on deck. Watch how our project cargo team carefully discharged the bridges in Rotterdam – and hear how it all came together, from loading on flat racks in China to final staging for inland delivery. 🎥 Watch the video below Learn more → msc.com/project #msccargo #project

Take a behind-the-scenes look at how MSC is putting sustainability into action – from vessels to rail to repair yards 💛🚢 We recently welcomed senior supply chain leaders from 12 multinational companies to Antwerp for a closer look at the tangible steps we’re taking to support their Scope 3 goals. During two days on site, they explored MSC’s sustainability efforts firsthand – from dual-fuel LNG vessels and electric yard equipment to inland rail and container repair. The experience sparked powerful conversations about partnership and collective action. As Stefania Lallai, our VP of Sustainability, put it: “Collaboration is everything when it comes to sustainability, because we really need to work together on addressing the challenges.” Read more → https://lnkd.in/dDHcXsvp #Decarbonization #Scope3 #msccargo

Great to welcome Lauren Schutjer and the Eastman team to our MSC Behind-the-Scenes Sustainability Tour in Antwerp. Thank you for joining us and for the kind words! 😊
I recently added the EMEA Marine Category to my logistics sourcing responsibilities, and last week had the unique opportunity to visit MSC Mediterranean Shipping Company’s “Behind the Scenes” Sustainability event in Antwerp. We heard from many speakers on the different initiatives MSC is taking to reduce their carbon footprint and capped off the event with a day dedicated to visiting MedRepair (container repair), EDR (dry dock), Medway and MPET terminal to see these initiatives in action. We were able to board the MSC Jewel and meet the crew. Thank you to the MSC team for organizing such a great event!

A tribute to the seafarers ⚓️ 💛 Today is IMO’s official Day of the Seafarer – and we want to say thank you to the people at the heart of it all. This short film is built on portraits taken for Souls, a book by photographer Paleari, commissioned by MSC as a tribute to the real lives of our crew. The photos capture authentic, unposed moments at sea – paired with real sounds recorded during the project. From all of us, to all of you: thank you 🙏🏼 #DayOfTheSeafarer #msccargo

A sea of yellow in the heart of Hamburg! 💛🚢 🎉 On Saturday, more than 100,000 people joined us at the Landungsbrücken for the MSC Yellow Festival – our biggest-ever public event. The day was filled with music, street performances, and activities for all ages, and ended with the naming of our new LNG dual-fuel vessel, MSC Germany, beside the Elbphilharmonie. The grand finale featured fireworks, a drone show, and a live performance by Zoe Wees – all on a floating stage on the Elbe. The festival marked MSC’s new partnership with the Port of Hamburg and was our way of introducing ourselves to the public of a city that’s been part of our story for many years. Thank you to everyone from the local community who joined us and helped make the day so special! 🎥 Watch the highlights in the video below.

A heavy lift in Augusta, Italy! 🏋️🚢 We recently completed the transport of two 135-tonne transformers from Damietta, Egypt to Augusta, Italy – on a dedicated, one-time service outside our regular trade routes. Mobile cranes at Augusta were used to carefully discharge the cargo, demonstrating the precision needed to handle oversized and complex shipments. This milestone also marked the first-ever project cargo handled at the Port of Augusta. 🎥 Watch the discharge of one of the transformers in the video below.
