'CSC' stands for the International Convention for Safe Containers. The CSC plate must contain all details on the container, including type, manufacturer, approval number (also important for customs), year of manufacture, serial number, weights, and the expiration date of the plate.
The CSC plate must be renewed at the latest five years after the initial inspection and can only be carried out by authorised specialist companies.
CHS Container Handel GmbH is authorised by Germanischer Lloyd to carry out these renewals. This specialist company is liable in cases of proven negligence.
Containers that do not have a valid CSC plate may not be loaded onto ships! Our qualified staff here at CHS will also be happy to provide our customers with advice and assistance on anything related to CSC.
