Protected transport of your important Power Equipment freight
China
Brazil
The ocean route from Tianjin to Vitoria offers significant advantages for transporting industrial machinery and construction equipment. This pathway ensures access to large cargo vessels capable of accommodating heavy and oversized loads, which is essential for such equipment. Additionally, the maritime route minimizes handling and transit risks, providing a reliable option for manufacturers and construction firms looking to move their products efficiently. The established shipping lanes also contribute to cost-effective logistics solutions.
At the origin, Tianjin boasts a well-developed port infrastructure equipped with modern facilities tailored for handling industrial goods. The port's extensive loading and unloading capabilities streamline the process for heavy machinery, ensuring swift transitions from land to sea. In Vitoria, the port is similarly equipped with specialized terminals for receiving construction equipment, providing ample space and resources for efficient offloading and distribution. Both ports maintain strong connectivity to inland transportation networks, facilitating seamless access to final destinations.

When shipping from Tianjin, China to Vitoria, Brazil, prepare for significant delays due to the East Asia Rainy Season (May-October) and the Western Pacific Typhoon Season (June-November). Build in extra buffer days to account for potential port congestion and weather disruptions. Additionally, book vessel space well in advance during peak periods like the South America Fruit Export Peak (January-May, September-December) and the Soy Export Peak (February-June) to avoid rollovers. Stay updated on weather forecasts and adjust cut-off times accordingly to mitigate risks associated with the Brazil Wet Season (October-March).

Shipping very heavy factory equipment Requires careful planning. Use heavy timber skids with clear lifting points, Engage experienced machinery movers for loading, and choose Flatbed or lowboy trailers rated for the full load. Block and brace the machine to prevent any movement, and record its condition before pickup.
Yes, moisture‑sensitive industrial fans Should be shielded from moisture. Use moisture‑barrier film with Desiccant packs inside, cap all duct and cable openings, and Choose Enclosed trailers whenever possible. For ocean freight, ask about VCI packaging for long voyages.
Exporting industrial machinery typically Requires a customs invoice, packing list, waybill, and any Export licenses applicable to your destination. We recommend including serial numbers, model numbers, and precise weights for each unit, especially for Generators. For some destinations, you should check if you need certificates of origin, fumigation or ISPM‑15 declarations for wood packaging, and safety or emissions certificates for HVAC equipment.
High‑value power equipment Should be protected by stand‑alone coverage, as carrier liability is usually limited and may not cover full replacement cost. Insure for replacement cost, confirm that Loading and unloading are covered, and Keep inspection reports and photos in case you need to file a claim. This is especially important for custom‑built Industrial machinery where lead times and replacement costs are high.
Crated heavy equipment Can sometimes be stored outdoors short‑term if packaging is designed for it and placed on concrete pads, not bare ground. However, moisture‑sensitive items like HVAC equipment and Generators Are better kept under cover or indoors. If outdoor storage is unavoidable, verify wraps and tarps regularly, maintain drainage around the site, and plan for timely installation to reduce corrosion and electrical damage.
When shipping Industrial Machinery & Construction Equipment, it is essential to ensure that all items are securely packed and properly crated to prevent damage during transit. Special handling equipment may be required for loading and unloading due to the size and weight of the machinery. Additionally, it is important to consider the use of flat rack or open-top containers for oversized items.
The required documentation includes a commercial invoice, packing list, bill of lading, and any applicable export licenses from China. For Brazil, an import license, customs declaration, and compliance with local regulations regarding industrial machinery and construction equipment must be provided to facilitate customs clearance.
