Packaging & Shipping
The U steel is grouped and tied up orderly. Timber supports are laid underneath to separate and shield the profiles from scratches and dents. Once loaded inside the container, secure lashings hold the material steady. This stops movement and vibration while in transit. The packing setup blocks dust and damp, making it ideal for ocean shipping over long distances. Your steel sections will arrive at the destination in good condition.
