Shipping Fashion Products from Genoa to Guayaquil via Ocean Freight

For moisture-sensitive Clothing & apparel, Use an inner sealed liner for each unit or bundle, then place items in Sturdy cartons. Add silica gel for longer or ocean shipments, and ensure cartons are fully closed and taped to keep out humidity and splashes.

Most Textiles can move in Standard dry containers or regular parcel cartons, as long as they are shielded from water. For Fabric rolls, our team suggests palletized or racked loading to prevent Crushing, and in humid lanes, adding Container desiccants is advisable.

High-value Fashion products benefit from Minimal handling, sealed packaging, and Palletization to avoid snagging. Instruct handlers to keep Garments off the floor, avoid Sharp hooks, and not to crush lightweight fashion cartons.
