Shipping Solid Glue from Guangzhou/Shenzhen to Bintulu Port, Malaysia

Shipping Solid Glue from Guangzhou/Shenzhen to Bintulu Port, Malaysia

FCL (Full Container Load) Shipping: 20ft/40ft

For large shipments, Full Container Load (FCL) is a common choice. This method allows you to use an entire 20-foot or 40-foot container for your cargo. FCL shipping offers several benefits, including lower costs per unit when shipping large quantities and better security, as the entire container is dedicated solely to your goods.

The process involves booking the container, loading the solid glue onto it, and then shipping it directly to Bintulu Port, Malaysia, under the CIF (Cost, Insurance, and Freight) Incoterm. The shipper will cover the cost of transportation, insurance, and freight charges up until the goods arrive at the port of destination.

LCL (Less than Container Load) Shipping

If your shipment volume does not fill an entire container, LCL (Less than Container Load) shipping is an excellent alternative. This allows you to share container space with other shippers, reducing costs while still providing an efficient and cost-effective option.

The process for LCL shipping involves consolidating smaller shipments from multiple suppliers into one container. After arriving at Bintulu Port, your goods will be unloaded and sent to the final destination. The shipping journey for LCL takes around 7 days by sea, just like FCL.

Packaging for Solid Glue

Proper packaging is crucial when shipping solid glue, as it needs to be protected from heat, moisture, and physical damage. The packaging process should follow international shipping standards to ensure the glue arrives safely in Malaysia.

  1. Primary Packaging:

    • The solid glue should be packed in airtight, durable containers such as plastic drums, sealed boxes, or heavy-duty bags to prevent contamination and preserve quality.
    • If the glue is in liquid form or has a semi-solid consistency, it is important to use containers that are leak-proof and able to withstand temperature variations.
  2. Secondary Packaging:

    • The airtight containers should then be placed in sturdy wooden crates or pallets for added protection.
    • The packaging should include moisture-proof wrapping, especially if the glue is sensitive to humidity or high temperatures. This can be achieved by using heat-sealed plastic wraps or shrink films.
  3. Labeling and Documentation:

    • Clear and accurate labeling of the shipment is essential for customs clearance. Each package should be marked with the contents, weight, handling instructions, and destination details. Additionally, safety data sheets for hazardous materials should accompany the shipment, if applicable.
  4. Container Loading:

    • When loading the solid glue into a 20ft or 40ft container (for FCL) or a shared LCL container, ensure the cargo is evenly distributed and secured. Proper strapping and padding should be used to prevent movement during transit, which could cause damage to the goods.
