Insurance and Inspection

Whilst Stemcor strives for the cargo to be delivered without damage, the nature of the business means that goal is not always achievable. Insurance is therefore essential.

Stemcor takes advantage of a Group insurance policy and insures all cargo which is transported or stored at Stemcor’s risk. In addition Stemcor is able cover marine insurance on behalf of its contract partners  and is therefore able to offer customers the option of buying on a CIF or CIP basis.

Stemcor has established relationships with the main inspection houses worldwide and access via our network of offices to local surveyors. We are able to recommend and appoint the right surveyor and define the correct scope of inspection. Where necessary and appropriate we undertake a full inspection of cargoes before and after shipment.

In certain markets we employ our own staff to attend loading and/or discharge of cargoes to verify the visual quality of cargo and of the handling operations.
