Shipping very heavy factory equipment necessitates careful planning. Use purpose‑built skids with clear lifting points, work with experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Stabilize and strap the machine to prevent any movement, and photograph its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans needs to be shielded from moisture. Use sealed plastic covers with humidity absorbers inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose covered transport whenever possible. For ocean freight, evaluate enhanced corrosion protection for long voyages.
Exporting industrial machinery typically involves a customs invoice, packing list, transport document, and any regulatory approvals applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for power equipment. For some destinations, authorities may require certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for industrial machines.
High‑value power equipment are best protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for total project value, confirm that water damage are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built construction machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated heavy equipment may be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on hardstanding, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like industrial fans and Generators are safest under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, check wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and limit duration to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
Shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment requires special handling due to the weight and size of the items. Proper securing and bracing are essential during loading and transport to prevent damage. Additionally, equipment may need to be disassembled for easier handling and compliance with container dimensions.
Required documentation for shipping industrial machinery and construction equipment includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any relevant export permits. Additionally, import permits from Egyptian authorities may be necessary, along with compliance with local regulatory requirements regarding machinery imports.
