Projeye Genel Bakış
Kargo: Washed Stone (清洗石 / 景观石)
Konteyner Türü: 1 × 40HQ (High Cube Container)
Nakliye Şekli: FCL (Tam Konteyner Yükü)
Port of Loading (POL): Dalian, China
Port of Discharge (POD): Sidney, Avustralya
Delivery Term: DDU (Door-to-Door)
Cargo Characteristics & Key Challenges
Washed stone is widely used in landscaping, construction, and drainage systems. However, due to its high density and irregular shape, it presents several logistics challenges.
Key Challenges:
1. Heavy Weight Management
Stone cargo is extremely dense, meaning a container can reach its maximum weight limit before full volume utilization.
✔ BRF Çözümü:
- Precise weight calculation before loading
- Strict compliance with container payload limits
- Even weight distribution to ensure safe transport
2. Packaging & Moisture Control
Although washed stone is cleaned, it may still contain residual moisture, which can lead to:
- Container humidity
- Potential mold or contamination concerns
- Increased cargo weight
✔ BRF Çözümü:
- Use of durable ton bags or reinforced bulk bags
- Internal lining for moisture protection
- Placement of desiccants inside the container
3. Container Loading Optimization (40HQ)
While a 40HQ container offers larger space, for heavy cargo like stone, weight becomes the limiting factor rather than volume.
✔ Loading Strategy:
- Bulk bag stacking with stable base support
- Palletization where required
- Anti-shift securing techniques
- Floor load reinforcement checks
This ensured safe handling during both sea transport and inland delivery.
