Among the main competitive advantages of our company are understanding of the local market, know-how and innovative technologies, an extensive network of partners around the world and a personal approach to each client. The most important component of our success is the safe delivery of your cargo within the timeframes specified by you and at fixed costs.

SinMar offers advanced technologies for loading and transporting various types of freight by rail:

Standard / general cargo

Standard / general cargo are delivered in covered wagons and universal containers. Delivery can be carried out in the “door to door" format. When shipping goods on pallets, we offer containers of increased capacity. An example of this type of cargo would be mobile equipment, packaged goods, metal products, etc.

Dangerous goods

Dangerous goods can be transported in any of the rolling stock types, in compliance with local regulations and both industry and UN standards. Dangerous goods include bulk or liquid cargo, which poses danger to human health and the environment - explosive, flammable liquids and gases, radioactive substances, corrosive compounds, poisonous and toxic chemical elements.

Inert and liquid cargo

Inert and liquid cargo shipping is handled in containers, such as liner bags, flexitanks, and others. Liquid cargo is transported in tanks, tank-containers or flexi-tanks. For transportation of bulk cargo, special bunker wagons are used - hoppers. Inert / Bulk: rubble, granite, sand, grain, fertilizer, cement, and other materials. The conditions of transportation are determined by the sanitary norms and the type of goods - non-hazardous or dangerous.

Oversized and heavy cargo

Oversized and heavy cargo is delivered on universal platforms, conveyors, in covered freight wagons and half wagons. These carry industrial equipment, road construction equipment, large-format glass, rolled steel, cars, trucks, and other units that exceed the norms of federal and international transportation regulations in terms of weight and size. We have in-house our own engineering technologists who will develop for you all the necessary drawings and designs. This distinctive advantage simplifies the project implementation after submitting an order to only three stages: developing the drawings, signing them off, and executing the project.
