Avoid cargo damage and customs hold-ups at the port with these 3 sea freight packing standards.
A smooth ocean transit begins before cargo ever reaches the container terminal. When shipping general cargo via sea freight, following strict packaging and labeling benchmarks prevents moisture damage, cargo shifting, and costly customs inspection delays.
1. Secure Palletizing & Strapping: Standardize on ISPM-15 heat-treated pallets with heavy-duty strapping to withstand multi-axis vessel movement.
2. Moisture Control: Incorporate industrial container desiccant packs and barrier wrapping to counteract container rain on long open-water voyages.
3. Standardized Port Markings: Affix clear, waterproof shipping labels displaying gross weight, handling symbols, port of discharge, and consignee details on two adjacent sides.
