Inspection & Quality Control

Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI) at any Egyptian port — SGS, Intertek, Bureau Veritas, Cotecna, Société Générale de Surveillance.

Inspection & quality control

Most destination markets — and certainly any L/C-financed buyer — require a third-party PSI before vessel sailing. We coordinate the inspection company's site visit at the loading port and ensure the cargo conforms to the tender spec.

Pre-Shipment Inspection (PSI)

Standard inspection scope:

  • Visual + sampling at the stevedore yard
  • Quantity verification (draft survey for bulk; weighing certificate for bagged)
  • Quality verification — sample sealed and dispatched to the inspector's lab
  • Container / hatch sealing under PSI agent supervision
