Shipping Hardware from Laem Chabang to Port Said via Ocean Freight

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

For light fixtures and light fittings, Use Double-wall cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses Do not touch each other. Our team recommends individually wrapping each item in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then positioning them in snug compartments. Mark cartons as “Fragile – Lighting” and avoid stacking them under heavy building supplies on the same pallet.

Moisture-sensitive building products such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical Lighting Should be Wrapped with poly wrap and, where feasible, paired with desiccant packs. Book enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and Avoid long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, evaluate container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value power tools and branded fasteners Often justify All-risk cargo insurance, especially when combined with fragile Lighting. Our specialists recommend obtaining coverage for shipments at full replacement value and retaining serial numbers or SKU lists for premium Power tools. This documentation strengthens claim outcomes if cartons are lost, pilfered, or water-damaged.

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