CAP Logistics operates as a local family-owned business, and we teamed up with our partner JP Morgan Chase & Co. to donate a rush shipment of 10,000 KN95 face masks to the Colorado Department of Human Services (CDHS) and St. Anthony Hospital. Following CDC and HICPAC guidelines, the highly demanded KN95 masks needed to mitigate the risk to healthcare providers and others on the frontlines are imperative for the fight against COVID-19. The critical medical shipment arrived at Denver International Airport and rush delivery to CDHS and St. Anthony Hospital took place today.

According to the Wall Street Journal on January 9th, companies are shipping more items by plane to meet customers' rising expectations for rapid delivery, prompting a scramble for cargo space.
The causes are as follows:
Strong global economic growth is spurring demand for goods long ferried by air, such as automotive and manufacturing parts.
Online shoppers have come to expect faster home delivery of everything so passenger jets and dedicated cargo planes are picking up more kinds of cargo traditionally carried by container ships, trains, and trucks.
A shortage of drivers and the pending implementation of the federal Electronic Logging Device mandate is having an effect on team driving.

In recent years, international trade has seen record numbers. In 2016, the total U.S. trade with foreign countries totaled $4.9 trillion – a little over half of that was imports, and, the remainder in exports. The U.S. and the European Union have continually remained in the top three countries in the world regarding exporting and importing, and, this is important in involving: capital goods, industrial supplies and commercial goods. Everything from: airplanes and automobiles; to pharmaceuticals and chemicals; to food and beverage; to semiconductors, electronics and computers; industrial machinery and equipment – even travel – all account for this international trade every second, of everyday.

Millions of years ago, dinosaurs trekked the globe in search of survival, and humans wouldn’t have stood a chance in their environment. In modern times, humans trek the globe in search of evidence of dinosaurs’ eventual demise in the form of fossils and other paleontological pursuits. When it’s time to get fossils from one place to another, CAP Logistics and CAP Worldwide are industry leaders in shipping these particularly historic and fragile items. For example, CAP Worldwide recently shipped a major find, an ankylosaurus, from Montana to the Royal Ontario Museum in Toronto.
In general, once dinosaur fossils are removed from the ground, they are encased in hard plaster for transport. They are then carefully placed and secured onto a flatbed trailer before CAP Worldwide delivers the fossils to their new homes.
