When transporting mixed loads of building products such as light fixtures, hand tools, and bulk fasteners, 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 Use 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 light fixtures and lighting components, choose reinforced boxes with internal dividers or foam inserts so glass and lenses do not contact each other. We recommend 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 Construction materials on the same pallet.
Moisture-sensitive building products such as cement-based goods, metal fasteners, and electrical LED lights must be protected with Plastic sheeting and, where feasible, paired with desiccant packs. Select enclosed equipment—like dry vans or sealed ocean containers—rather than open trucks, and Avoid long outdoor dwell times at terminals. For export, Consider container liners or dehumidifier units for high-humidity routes.
