Shipping Lightings from Port Klang to Altamira via Ocean Freight

When Shipping mixed loads of Construction materials such as Lighting, power tools, and bulk fasteners, properly separate items by weight and fragility on each pallet. Stack heavy, dense construction goods at the bottom, with lighter cartons of light fixtures 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 will handle them appropriately.

For Lighting and LED lights, Use heavy-duty cartons with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses never contact each other. DNA recommends individually protecting each unit in bubble wrap or foam sleeves, then positioning them in snug compartments. Clearly 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 Hardware, and electrical Lighting need to be covered with moisture-barrier film and, where feasible, supplemented by desiccant packs. Select enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and try to avoid long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, evaluate container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.

High-value Tools and branded Hardware Often justify additional freight insurance, especially when combined with fragile LED lights. DNA recommends covering shipments at full replacement value and maintaining 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 Lighting ship as general Construction goods, but You should properly declare them with the correct HS codes and electrical specifications on your documentation. If battery-powered tools with lithium batteries are included, DG regulations may be involved, requiring hazmat markings, packing instructions, and sometimes carrier pre-approval. Check with your carrier or freight forwarder in advance to confirm any restrictions for combined loads of electrical Lighting and powered power tools.

Building & Construction Materials must be properly packaged to withstand ocean transport conditions, including humidity and salt exposure. Additionally, heavy items may require special handling equipment during loading and unloading to ensure safety and prevent damage.

Shipments of Building & Construction Materials must comply with both Malaysian export regulations and Mexican import regulations, including proper documentation such as commercial invoices, packing lists, and any necessary certifications for materials. It is important to ensure that all materials meet Mexican standards for construction products.

Users have stated that they want to use SAMMIE for every ocean freight shipment they move because having all shipment data in one dashboard is invaluable and time-saving.

The “One Test Run Challenge” is an invitation to give DNA Supply Chain Solutions one test shipment so we can prove what visibility, reliability, and real partnership feel like with just a single shipment.

The name comes from a conversation between our founder and his daughter, Ameerah, who suggested merging their names—David ‘N’ Ameerah—to create DNA, reflecting strong bonds, shared values, and trust.
