1. Drawing and route confirmation
Confirm route type, module split, required standard region, base material, surface finish and packing assumptions before the quotation is finalized.

Shipping & Logistics
Understand Incoterms, packing logic and container planning before final quotation.
Buyers should be able to see what they will get before freight is priced: bundle split, unloading basis, mark sample and the document trail that supports handover. This page makes those outputs visible early so shipping assumptions do not stay buried inside the final quote email.

Export workflow buyers should see before sending the final RFQ
2. Commercial term alignment
Agree whether the shipment will be quoted as EXW, FOB or CIF, and confirm the destination port and unloading method early.
3. Packing and loading plan
Assign bundles, pallets and crates according to structure length, site handling risk and container loading efficiency.
4. Export document pack
Prepare commercial invoice, packing list, drawing pack, material references and project notes that match the shipment scope.
Incoterms we discuss most often
Heavy fabricated ladders and platforms are freight-sensitive, so the commercial term changes the buying decision early. The site makes EXW, FOB and CIF visible because buyers usually need them before they can compare the landed cost.
EXW
Best when the buyer or forwarder wants to control pickup, export booking and ocean freight directly from the factory side.
FOB
Common when the buyer wants the supplier to manage export handling to the loading port while the buyer controls ocean freight.
CIF
Useful when the buyer wants ocean freight and cargo insurance included in the initial quotation for easier landed-cost comparison.
Packing methods and container planning
The final packing list is driven by approved drawing dimensions, packing protection level, destination port and unloading constraints. That is why the website pushes this conversation up-front instead of hiding it after the RFQ is submitted.
Bundled ladder sections
Used when repeated ladder modules and brackets can be protected efficiently without adding unnecessary packing volume.
Palletized components
Suitable for mixed hardware, handrail sets, platform panels and smaller fabricated items that need forklift-friendly handling.
Plywood crate packing
Applied where edge protection, surface finish control or long-distance handling risk requires a stronger export packing format.
Reference shipment examples buyers can compare internally
Fixed ladder bundle
Best for compact vertical ladders and roof-access sections with straightforward unloading.
Platform module set
Best for crossover bridges, maintenance platforms and retrofit stair modules.
Crated sensitive parts
Best for mixed hardware, finish-sensitive parts and higher handling-risk export lanes.
Packing visuals and file previews

Bundle vs pallet vs crate
Compares when open bundles, palletized mixed parts or plywood crates make more sense for the route and unloading method.

Shipping mark and crate label sample
A realistic preview of the code, destination, pack number and handling notes normally printed on the export mark.
What a realistic export mark usually includes
- Reference code or project code for matching the pack list.
- Destination port or receiving note when the buyer wants dock-side sorting to be faster.
- Pack number, gross weight and handling instruction such as keep dry or forklift here.
- Module split logic so installers can match ladder bodies, landings, rails and fixing packs on arrival.
How to read container loading information on the site
- 20GP and 40HQ loading calculations are issued with the quotation package after the approved drawing defines module length and packing method.
- Final packing size, gross weight and loading quantity depend on ladder height, platform width, bracket projection and whether the order ships bundled, palletized or crated.
- Destination-port congestion, local unloading method and requested protection level can change the final loading plan even when the fabricated structure is similar.
Documents normally aligned before shipment
Commercial invoice and packing list
Used to keep customs, receiving and unloading coordination aligned with the exact shipped modules and quantities.
Material and drawing pack
Useful when the buyer needs fabrication references, material direction, drawing revision history or site coordination before dispatch.
Destination-port notes
Shared early when the buyer wants the quotation structured around a specific port, unloading pattern or freight basis.
