Gas-tight tent fumigation is one of the most effective methods for eliminating pests in various types of cargo, including agricultural goods, wooden pallets, industrial loads, containers and stored food products. By completely isolating the cargo under a sealed tent, fumigant gas is introduced in a controlled environment, eliminating insects, larvae, eggs and microorganisms at all life stages. At Kuzey Marine Survey, we carry out this operation in compliance with international fumigation standards and strict safety protocols.

The primary purpose of fumigation is to ensure that the cargo is free from pests that may cause contamination, rejection or quality degradation. For export shipments, many countries require fumigation as an entry condition. Our expert team conducts continuous gas measurements, safety controls and detailed reporting throughout the operation, ensuring that the process is completed efficiently and safely.

Expert Execution with Full Compliance and Safety

Each fumigation operation begins with a detailed cargo analysis to determine the correct fumigation method. A suitable area is prepared and the gas-tight tent system is installed. Special sealing tapes, clips and silicone barriers are used to ensure maximum containment of the fumigant gas.

After the tent is secured, fumigant gas such as methyl bromide or phosphine is applied by certified fumigation specialists. Gas concentration is monitored continuously to ensure that it remains within safe and effective limits. Once exposure time is completed, the tent undergoes a controlled ventilation process, which is essential for personnel and environmental safety.

Final gas clearance measurements are then conducted. These measurements are required for certification and confirm that the cargo is safe for handling and transport. Kuzey Marine Survey provides all documentation in accordance with ISPM 15 and other international fumigation standards.

This method offers a fully controlled environment where gas can spread uniformly, ensuring maximum effectiveness. It is suitable for a wide range of cargo types, including containers, open cargo and bulk agricultural products.

Because the tent prevents external atmospheric conditions from affecting the process, fumigation remains consistent and reliable. It is also the preferred method for exporters requiring official proof that their cargo is free from pests.
