Our logistics department constantly monitors shipments in transit and adjusts plans proactively if there are any disruptions, such as port delays or changing customs regulations. The result is a streamlined supply chain that adapts to circumstances and keeps your business running smoothly.

Uncompromising Quality, Safety & Compliance

Quality assurance and regulatory compliance are at the heart of Sasma’s operations.

We recognize that when you import bulk alcohol – whether for food & beverage, pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, or industrial use – you need absolute confidence in the product quality and the logistics process. That’s why Sasma maintains rigorous standards in everything we do.

Our company is proud to hold ISO 9001:2015 certification for Quality Management and ISO 22000:2018 certification for Food Safety Management. From internal procedures to how we interact with customers, our entire team follows these best practices to deliver consistent, professional service. Regular audits by external bodies confirm that we meet all the required benchmarks for quality and safety.

In addition, Sasma complies with all relevant transport and safety regulations for alcohol, which is classified as a hazardous good. We strictly adhere to global shipping standards (including IMDG code for ocean freight and ADR/RID for road and rail in Europe) to guarantee safe handling of flammable liquids. Our logistics experts coordinate the necessary permits and paperwork.

Got a special shipping requirement or an unexpected challenge?

Consider it handled. We are problem solvers – whether it’s navigating sudden tariff changes or new import regulations in your country, or arranging a last-minute change in delivery destination, we have the expertise to adapt quickly. For example, when new tariffs threaten to disrupt supply chains, our experts step in to manage costs and re-route shipments, providing our customers with peace of mind despite industry uncertainty. We stay up-to-date on global trade developments, so we can anticipate issues and address them proactively.

Most importantly, we tailor our logistics services to fit your business. Need a specific packaging format? We will do our best to accommodate it. Our flexible packaging options range from drums and IBC totes to ISO tank containers, and we advise on the optimal choice for your needs (taking into account factors like volume, destination, and handling). We can arrange consignment stocking or scheduled deliveries for customers who require a steady supply, helping you manage your inventory better.

This commitment to service has another benefit: it builds trust. Over the years, we’ve found that by solving problems and delivering consistently, we earn our clients’ confidence. Many of our partnerships have grown into long-term relationships grounded in trust and mutual success. We don’t just want to be your supplier for one shipment; we aim to be your trusted logistics partner for the long run. Our clients know they can count on Sasma’s professionalism, confidentiality, and dedication to their business goals.
