Traditional hold cleaning often requires long port stays, multiple inspections, and repeated cleaning cycles, leading to increased costs and schedule disruptions.
Our hold cleaning service model is designed to overcome these challenges. We perform cleaning activities either during short port calls or while the vessel is sailing, depending on operational requirements, ensuring:

Hold cleaning is carried out through planned procedures, experienced manpower, and approved cleaning methods to meet cargo and inspection requirements efficiently.

Hold cleaning performed during port stays or anchorage to remove cargo residues, dust, and contaminants. This service is ideal when vessels require rapid turnaround and inspection readiness without prolonged port occupation.

Hold cleaning is performed during the voyage, saving time and ensuring holds are ready before the next loading port, using trained teams and standard procedures.
With operational access near Gibraltar and Algeciras, we are well positioned to support hold cleaning requirements for vessels operating around the Strait of Gibraltar. This enables us to mobilize quickly and perform hold cleaning at port or at sea while vessels continue trading across European and international routes.
All hold cleaning services are carried out using marine-grade equipment, approved cleaning practices, and safety-focused procedures. Our teams are trained to work safely during port operations and sailing conditions while meeting international maritime and cargo cleanliness standards.
We focus on:
Hold cleaning services involve the removal of cargo residues, contaminants, and loose materials from cargo holds to prepare them for the next cargo. Proper hold cleaning is essential to meet cargo specifications, pass inspections, and avoid contamination risks.
By performing hold cleaning at port or during voyages, our services help ship operators reduce delays, control costs, and ensure cargo readiness without interrupting vessel schedules.
Our hold cleaning services help vessels achieve clean, compliant, and cargo-ready holds while maintaining operational continuity and commercial schedules.
