Transporting out-of-gauge (OOG) machinery, heavy industrial modules, and bulk commodities into Sweden requires sophisticated marine engineering. Since 1995, G&B International Logistics (Green & Blue Group) has pioneered standard operating procedures (SOP) that integrate rigid stowage calculations, point-load analyses, and customized lashing schemes compliant with DNV and RINA marine standards.
Equipped with FMC Licensing (Wash D.C. #4159N/F), ISA Customs Brokerage Certification (#GL0110004), Dangerous Goods Operations Approval (#A03043), and official KOTRA logistics partnership credentials, G&B guarantees smooth compliance. Our 4th Generation Logistics (4GL) system provides Swedish buyers real-time visibility from factory loading bays to final Nordic site foundations.
Tailored supply chain execution aligned with Sweden's key industrial hubs and infrastructure developments.
Sweden’s rapid push toward zero-emission energy has led to immense offshore and onshore wind installations in Norrland and coastal Baltic zones. We manage the delicate ocean delivery of nacelles, 80-meter+ turbine blades, and heavy tower sections directly to specialized deep-water quay berths.
For global equipment manufacturers supplying major mining nodes in Kiruna and Gällivare or forestry processors in Värmland, G&B handles heavy-duty excavators, crushers, and timber machinery using Ro-Ro and breakbulk chartering with full Swedish road transport permits.
Supporting Sweden’s pioneering green steel mills and modular construction projects, we transport massive structural steel beams, heavy cranes, and prefabricated boiler units. Our port stevedores ensure zero-damage discharge at Port of Gothenburg and Port of Malmö.
Connecting manufacturing hubs in Asia directly to Gothenburg’s automotive production corridor. We transport multi-ton stamping presses, heavy dies, and marine engine blocks utilizing heavy-lift cranes, specialized dunnage, and moisture-controlled sea packaging.
Understanding environmental policies, port developments, and compliance requirements in Scandinavia.
Sweden aims to become one of the world's first fossil-free welfare nations by 2045. As a result, Swedish importers favor logistics providers using eco-efficient vessel fleets, biofuel-blended shipping lines, and electrified port handling gear to lower Scope 3 greenhouse gas emissions across their supply chains.
As the largest port in Scandinavia, Gothenburg is deepening its channels to accommodate larger breakbulk vessels and upgrading its shore-power connection infrastructure. G&B works closely with terminal operators to reserve heavy quay space and coordinate priority discharge for time-critical project cargo.
Importing heavy machinery into Sweden requires strict adherence to EU phytosanitary standards. All timber dunnage and crating must carry certified ISPM 15 heat treatment stamps to pass Swedish Board of Agriculture inspections smoothly without expensive port quintentions.
Why leading industrial buyers choose G&B International Logistics over general freight forwarders.

Clear answers regarding transit routes, customs clearances, and heavy-haul inland distribution in Sweden.
Direct liner ocean routes from major ports such as Shanghai, Ningbo, or Shenzhen to the Port of Gothenburg generally take between 32 to 40 days depending on vessel calls. Express project charters can optimize transit times by bypassing intermediate feeder ports.
Under Delivered Duty Paid (DDP) terms, our ISA-certified customs experts oversee import declarations, EORI registration checks, duty calculations, and Swedish VAT (Mervärdesskatt) filings. Cargo moves smoothly from quay to job site without administrative bottlenecks.
Inland movement of oversized loads in Sweden requires special heavy-haul permits from Transportstyrelsen (Swedish Transport Agency) and coordination with Trafikverket. We arrange low-loader trailers, SPMTs, pilot escorts, and route surveys to navigate axle load limitations and bridge heights.
Yes. We specialize in bulk FIBC jumbo bag handling, quayside stevedoring, and moisture-protected warehouse storage. Our terminal teams utilize custom lifting spreaders to prevent bag tearing during high-speed ship discharge operations.
We employ heavy-duty steel wire lashing, turnbuckles, welded dunnage stoppers, and anti-slip rubber matting calculated against maximum anticipated wave friction. Cargo is sealed with heavy marine-grade shrink wrap and anti-corrosion VCI barrier bags to withstand salt air and sub-zero Baltic frost.
G&B offers comprehensive All-Risk Marine Cargo Insurance policies tailored specifically for breakbulk, heavy-lift, and project cargo. Coverage extends from the origin factory floor, through ocean transit, up to final installation on your foundation in Sweden.
