We are CVG (Cargo Verification Group), based in Kazakhstan and led by a team of experienced surveyors. We offer a wide range of inspections, as well as technical and consulting services across the Eurasian Economic Union: Armenia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, and Russia.
We provide an expert services in the realms of solid fuels, including coals and coal-related products, as well as metals, minerals, and biomass.
Coal remains an important raw material, utilized in various industries including metallurgy, energy, and chemicals. Numerous parameters influence its quality and price. For the fuel and energy sectors of many countries, in addition to calorific value (heat of combustion), ash and sulfur contents are also crucial for ecological reasons. To ensure the quality of coal, we collect samples in accordance with ISO standards. Our inspectors undergo training and conduct sampling under the direct supervision of company managers. Only a properly collected sample can accurately represent the average characteristics of the entire lot and enable you to verify its quality.
Our team comprises professionals with extensive experience in controlling the quality and quantity of grain. This ensures that our customers have access to a wide range of inspection services, available both at ports and production sites, specialized plants, elevators, and warehouses. We continuously refine our internal documents and instructions for conducting inspections to ensure that our clients receive high-quality inspection services regardless of location. Our inspectors adhere strictly to all standards when taking grain samples and preparing documentation.
Fertilizers possess several properties that underscore the necessity of having an inspector present:
Hygroscopicity - the capacity of a substance to absorb water vapor from the air, rendering adherence to storage and transportation conditions crucial.
High solubility in water - resulting in the disintegration of granular structure.
Caking, which stems from the preceding properties, is typically undesirable for our customers who prefer fertilizers in granular form rather than as a solid block.
Our experience enables us to conduct inspections from production at metallurgical plants or mining and processing facilities to receipt by the customer. Inspection of ferrous and non-ferrous metals, cast iron, scrap, ferroalloys, and other types of mineral raw materials, such as alumina, ore, ore concentrates, is one of the types of CVG inspections. We tailor our services to meet the needs of our clients: ensuring control over the quality and quantity of metals, adhering to sampling methods in accordance with ISO standards for subsequent chemical analysis.
Depending on the type of wood processing product, we conduct various types of inspections. From the perspective of loading and storage procedures, all these products are sensitive to humidity. Meanwhile, moisture content can be measured using a range of methods, from rapid to laboratory-based. This is why we prepare a detailed technical specification for each inspection.
