stainless steel plate sea export packaging requirements:
The packaging requirements of stainless steel sheets in sea exports are crucial, as proper packaging not only protects the goods from damage during transportation, but also ensures compliance with customs and the standards of the importing country. The following are the packing requirements for stainless steel sheet for sea export:
Selection of packaging materials:
Waterproof materials: Use waterproof and moisture-proof packaging materials, such as plastic film, moisture-proof paper, etc., to prevent stainless steel plates from rusting due to moisture during sea transportation.
Reinforcement materials: Use reinforcement materials, such as wooden boxes, wooden pallets, steel belts, etc., to enhance the stability and extrusion resistance of the packaging.
Packing:
Whole piece packing: For larger stainless steel plate pieces, wooden boxes or steel frames should be used for packing to ensure that each piece of goods is fixed within the frame to prevent movement and collision.
Strapping and packing: For smaller stainless steel plates, such as steel bars, wires, etc., steel strips or wires should be used for bundling, and ensure that the bundling is firm to avoid scattering.
Identification and Labeling:
Clear Label: The weight, size, quantity, and consignee information of the goods should be clearly marked on the outside of the package to ensure that the goods can be correctly identified and handled during transportation.
Dangerous goods identification: If stainless steel plates are dangerous goods or require special handling, the corresponding dangerous goods identification and handling instructions should be marked on the packaging.
Packaging Inspection:
Internal inspection: After packaging is complete, an internal inspection should be carried out to ensure that there are no missing tools, materials, or other debris that could cause damage during shipping.
External Inspection: Check that the outside of the package is intact and that there are no breakages or looseness, ensuring the integrity of the package before shipping.
Comply with international standards:
Compliance with international standards: Ensure that the packaging complies with international ocean packaging standards (such as ISO standards), as well as the import requirements of the destination country, to avoid customs clearance delays or returns due to packaging problems.
Special handling requirements:
Anti-rust treatment: For stainless steel plates that are prone to rust, anti-rust treatment should be carried out before packaging, such as spraying anti-rust oil or wrapping with anti-rust paper.
Isolation treatment: Different types of stainless steel plates should be isolated to avoid damage or contamination caused by contact with each other.
