1) Branch Office - Spanish-speaking support, customs clearance assistance, etc.
2) Over 5,000 tons of stock in stock, with a wide variety of sizes
3) Inspected by authoritative organizations such as CCIC, SGS, BV, and TUV, with standard seaworthy packaging
Empty Comprehensive Protection & Packaging: Each package of I-beams is tightly wrapped in tarpaulin with 2-3 desiccant packs inside each pack and tied under heat-sealed, rainproof layer to keep it away from getting wet.
Secure Bundling: Straps of 12–16 mm Φ steel bands are used per the bundle which are made to be fitted to lifting equipment at US ports, and it is safe to put 2–3 tons per bundle.
Clear compliance labeling: Bilingual (English/Spanish) labels are affixed to each bundle with critical information such as material grade, specifications, HS code, batch #, and test report reference.
Special Treatment for Large size Profile: For I-beam with section height ≥800mm, the steel surface is applied with industrial alignment oil and covered with tarpaulin for double protection.
Strong and reliable shipping agency: we have established strong cooperation with most of leading ship lines, such as MSK, MSC, COSCO, ect, that could guarantee the transportation.
Quality Assurance:Our process are in accordance with ISO 9001 quality management standard. From packaging material selection to transport allocation all through the entire process, every step is carefully monitored to ensure that the I-beams are received in perfect condition, laying a solid foundation for you to have a good start and keep running smoothly throughout the project.
