3) Inspected by authoritative organizations such as CCIC, SGS, BV, and TUV, with standard seaworthy packaging
PACKING
Basic Protection: Each bundle is wrapped in tarpaulin, with 2-3 desiccant packs placed in each bundle, and covered with heat-sealed rainproof cloth.
Bundling: Strapping is done with 12-16mm Φ steel straps, suitable for lifting equipment in American ports with a capacity of 2-3 tons per bundle.
Compliance Labeling: Bilingual (English + Spanish) labels are affixed, clearly indicating the material, specification, HS code, batch, and test report number.
DELIVERY
Road transport: Suitable for short distances or direct access to construction sites, transported by truck with secure anti-slip measures.
Rail transport: Suitable for long-distance, large-tonnage transport, with lower costs than long-distance road transport.
Sea transport: Used for international transport, capable of transporting long products in bulk or open-top containers.
Inland waterway/barge transport: Suitable for transporting large H-beams along rivers or inland waterways.
Special transport: Oversized or overweight H-beams are transported using multi-axle low-flatbed trailers or combined trailers.
Americas Market Transportation Solution:ASTM I Beams are primarily shipped to the Americas via containerized sea freight with steel strapping, end protection, and optional anti-rust treatment to ensure safe and efficient transport.
Q: What standards do your H beam steel comply with for Central American markets?
A: Our products meet ASTM A36, A572 Grade 50 standards, which are widely accepted in Central America. We can also provide products compliant with local standards such as Mexico's NOM.
Q: How long is the delivery time to Panama?
A: The sea freight from Tianjin Port to Colon Free Trade Zone takes about 28-32 days, and the total delivery time (including production and customs clearance) is 45-60 days. We also offer expedited shipping options.
Q: Do you provide customs clearance assistance?
A: Yes, we cooperate with professional customs brokers in Central America to help customers handle customs declaration, tax payment and other procedures, ensuring smooth delivery.
