About Containerships
Containerships is a Finnish shortsea line founded in 1966 and based in Helsinki, built around intra-European container traffic rather than the deep-sea trades. Its network reaches the Baltic, Russia, Northern Europe, the United Kingdom, North Africa and Turkey, and it pairs feeder sailings with door-to-door logistics across sea, road, rail and barge.
The company became an early mover in gas-fuelled shipping. It ordered a series of four 1,400 TEU dual-fuel newbuildings, taking delivery of the first, Containerships Nord, in December 2018, with sisters following in 2019. Those ships run on liquefied natural gas, and Containerships extended the idea onto land with a fleet of LNG-powered trucks, aiming to offer gas fuelling across the whole transport chain.
CMA CGM announced its acquisition of Containerships in 2018 and completed it after European Commission clearance that October. The deal, which followed the French group's earlier purchases of regional operators such as MacAndrews, folded roughly 690 Containerships staff into CMA CGM's intra-European operations and strengthened its short-sea coverage of Northern Europe and the Baltic.

How do I check Containerships tracking availability on Panvaya?
Enter a Containerships container number in the tracker on this page. If the carrier integration is available, Panvaya returns the shipment milestones and route. If it is still being onboarded, you can send a carrier request and ask to be notified when support becomes available.
What is Containerships's SCAC code?
Containerships's SCAC code is CSHP. It identifies Containerships on bills of lading and shipping documents and helps Panvaya match a reference to the correct carrier integration.
Can I track Containerships containers by Bill of Lading or booking number?
Bill of Lading and booking tracking is available after sign-in when Panvaya supports that reference type for Containerships. Carrier capabilities vary, so Panvaya shows a clear availability message instead of returning incomplete tracking data.
Is Containerships container tracking free on Panvaya?
A guest can check one container without signing in when Containerships tracking is supported. A Panvaya account is required for saved journeys, Bill of Lading or booking tracking, exception alerts, and additional shipments.
Why isn't my Containerships container updating?
Carrier milestones can appear after the physical movement occurs. If Containerships is supported and the container is valid, a quiet timeline may mean the next event has not yet been published. If the carrier is not yet available, Panvaya will show an onboarding message and a carrier-request option.
How accurate is the ETA for Containerships shipments?
When Containerships tracking is supported and enough journey data is available, Panvaya updates the displayed arrival estimate as new milestones and vessel information arrive. Any ETA remains an estimate rather than a delivery guarantee.
