ZA Shipping Executes Special Transportation for Oversized Art Installation

An international art gallery partnered with a UAE cultural organization to install a series of oversized sculptures at an open-air exhibition in Abu Dhabi. The sculptures — fragile, irregularly shaped, and ranging up to 4 meters tall — required special transportation with absolute care, security, and timing.

ZA Shipping was selected to manage the full logistics operation due to our proven experience in handling non-standard, high-value cargo.

Our special transportation solution included:

• Custom crating and shock-absorbent packing for each piece

• Route planning with local authorities for wide-load permits

• Use of air-suspension flatbed trucks to minimize vibration

• Temperature-controlled delivery schedule to avoid heat exposure

• On-site coordination with rigging teams for precise unloading

The sculptures arrived safely, ahead of schedule, and were installed without a single scratch. The client praised our detailed planning and ability to turn a high-risk operation into a seamless success.

When it’s not just freight, but a masterpiece — ZA Shipping delivers with precision.
