Shipping Building Supplies from Busan to Salvador via Ocean Freight

When Shipping mixed loads of construction goods such as Lighting, Tools, and bulk Hardware, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Load heavy, dense Building materials at the bottom, with lighter cartons of tools on top, and apply corner boards, top sheets, and stretch wrap to stabilize the load. Clearly label pallets with handling instructions like “Fragile lighting” or “Heavy tools” so carriers will handle them appropriately.

For Lighting and light fittings, Use Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. DNA recommends individually wrapping each item in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then Placing them in snug compartments. Prominently mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy building supplies on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive Construction materials such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical Lighting Should be protected with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, paired with desiccant packs. Use enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and minimize long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, evaluate container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value Tools and branded fasteners Often justify All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile light fixtures. DNA recommends obtaining coverage for shipments at full replacement value and Keeping serial numbers or SKU lists for premium hand tools. This documentation strengthens claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

Most standard electrical Lighting ship as general building products, but You should Declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation. If corded tools with lithium batteries are included, DG regulations may be involved, requiring UN-compliant labels, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Consult your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical LED lights and powered power tools.

Building & Construction Materials should be securely packaged to withstand the ocean freight journey, considering potential exposure to moisture and salt. It is crucial to use appropriate containers that provide protection against water damage and physical impacts during transit.
