When shipping from Jeddah to Navegantes, prepare for the Indian Ocean cyclone season (April-June and October-December) by building in extra buffer days and securing flexible ETAs. Additionally, consider reduced operations during Ramadan and Eid holidays (late March–late April and March-June), allowing 3-5 extra working days. Expect longer transit times due to Brazil's wet season (October-March), and secure vessel space well in advance during peak export periods (January-May and September-December) to mitigate congestion risks.

For moisture-sensitive mixed cargo, begin by using sturdy, double-wall cartons sized closely to the contents. Line each box with a moisture-barrier bag and seal it before closing the carton. We recommend separating plastic tableware and other fragile miscellaneous items with dividers or bubble wrap, then filling voids with paper or foam so nothing moves. Finally, Wrap the palletized load with stretch film, including a top sheet, to reduce exposure to humidity and light rain during handling.
Yes, you can ship single-use items with heavier general merchandise, but you need to control how they are combined. Place heavier cartons at the bottom of the pallet and lighter boxes with Plastic products on top. Inside each carton, include inner boxes or dividers so sharp or rigid items do not deform softer plastics. We recommend limiting stack height and marking “Do Not Crush” when mixed cartons contain fragile plastic tableware or thin packaging materials.
For medium-weight assorted products, select double-wall boxes that can handle stacking in trucks or containers. Smaller, well-filled cartons generally perform better than oversized boxes with lots of empty space. For shipments that include Packaging materials, pack separately sharp-edged items so they do not cut into neighboring Miscellaneous items. On pallets, add corner protectors and strapping to keep the load square and stable, especially for mixed consumer goods moving through multiple hubs.
In most cases, travel kits shipped with other assorted consumer products only require standard commercial documentation, but accuracy is important. Shippers should list each product group separately on the commercial invoice and packing list, indicating quantities and weights for items like Packaging supplies. Use clear, non-technical descriptions and add handling marks such as “Keep Dry” or “Fragile” where appropriate. If any component of the travel kits (for example, aerosols or batteries) is regulated, verify with your carrier for additional dangerous goods documentation and packing rules.
Store containers and boxes and other variety goods in a clean, dry area away from direct sunlight and open dock doors. Keep cartons on pallets or shelving rather than directly on the floor to avoid moisture wicking into boxes, especially for moisture-sensitive disposables. We recommend maintaining good airflow and using dehumidifiers or desiccant where humidity is high. Rotate stock so older boxes and plastic goods are used first, ensuring they retain enough strength for safe stacking and transport.
When shipping Mixed Consumer Goods, it is important to ensure proper packaging and labeling to comply with customs regulations. Items should be consolidated and securely stowed to prevent damage during ocean transit. Additionally, ensure that any hazardous materials are properly declared and handled according to international shipping regulations.
Required documentation includes a bill of lading, commercial invoice, packing list, and any necessary certificates of origin or health certifications, depending on the specific goods being shipped. It is also important to comply with Brazilian customs regulations for imported goods, which may require additional documentation.
