Shipping Adult Diapers from Guangzhou/Shenzhen to Port Kelang, Malaysia

Shipping Adult Diapers from Guangzhou/Shenzhen to Port Kelang, Malaysia

Shipping Options: FCL and LCL

Full Container Load (FCL)

For larger shipments, opting for a Full Container Load (FCL) is a practical choice. Whether you choose a 20-foot container (20FT) or a 40-foot container (40FT), FCL offers the advantage of having an entire container dedicated solely to your cargo, reducing handling time and ensuring that the goods are transported with minimal risk of damage.

  • FCL 20FT: Suitable for smaller bulk shipments, a 20-foot container can typically hold around 10-12 pallets of adult diapers.
  • FCL 40FT: A 40-foot container is ideal for larger shipments and can accommodate approximately 22-24 pallets of adult diapers, offering better cost-efficiency for larger volumes.

Both containers will be shipped under a CIF (Cost, Insurance, Freight) arrangement, where the seller covers the cost of transportation, insurance, and freight until the goods reach Port Kelang, Malaysia.

Less-than-Container Load (LCL)

For smaller shipments, where a full container may not be needed, LCL (Less-than-Container Load) is a more flexible option. With LCL, your cargo shares space with goods from other shippers in a single container. Although this might incur slightly higher per-unit shipping costs, it allows for lower volume shipments, making it ideal for businesses that do not require an entire container.

The sea freight journey from Guangzhou/Shenzhen to Port Kelang typically takes about 5 days, depending on the shipping line and route.

Packaging of Adult Diapers

Proper packaging is essential to ensure that adult diapers arrive at their destination in good condition. Here’s how these products are typically packaged for sea freight:

Outer Packaging:

  • Cardboard Boxes: Adult diapers are generally packed in strong, corrugated cardboard boxes to provide structural support. These boxes are durable enough to withstand the rigors of sea transport and handling.
  • Plastic Wrapping: To prevent moisture damage during transit, especially when shipping via sea, the cardboard boxes may be wrapped in plastic shrink film. This adds an extra layer of protection against humidity and water exposure.
  • Palletizing: For both FCL and LCL shipments, the boxes are typically palletized to ease the loading and unloading process. Pallets are made from either wood or plastic and allow for efficient handling, stacking, and securing of the cargo in the container.
  • Strapping and Stretch Film: To secure the boxes on the pallet, plastic strapping is used, and stretch film is applied to hold everything in place. This minimizes the risk of shifting and damage during the transport process.

Labeling and Documentation:

Each box and pallet should have clear and accurate labels indicating the contents, weight, and destination. The labels should include:

  • Product description (Adult Diapers / Urine Pads)
  • Quantity per box
  • Handling instructions (e.g., “Keep dry”)
  • Destination details (Port Kelang, Malaysia)

Additional Considerations:

  • Compliance: Ensure that the packaging complies with both Chinese export regulations and Malaysian import regulations. This includes meeting health and safety standards, and ensuring that the labeling is in line with local requirements.
  • Temperature Sensitivity: Although adult diapers are not particularly sensitive to temperature, it’s still crucial to keep them in a dry, cool environment to prevent any degradation of the packaging during transit.
