    Packing And Delivery

    • Packaging Features

    Roll Protection: The inner core uses steel or paper tubing, with edge protection plates or angle irons; the surface is covered with moisture-proof paper or PE film, and rust-preventive oil treatment is optional.
    Securation Method: High-strength steel straps are used for binding; wooden pallets or trays are placed if necessary.
    Bundling (Optional): Thin rolls can be bundled in multiple rolls, with separator paper to prevent scratches, and an outer plastic film for protection.

    • Transportation Methods

    Sea Freight: 20ft/40ft containers, secured with wooden wedges to prevent movement.
    Land Freight: Flatbed truck or rail transport, secured with chains or brackets.

    • Handling and Storage

    Use coil hooks, lifting tools, or C-frames to avoid dragging.
    Rolls must be stored upright, off the ground, to prevent deformation or rust.
    Keep dry and well-ventilated; avoid stacking too high.
