EXECUTIVE OVERVIEW

Capital-intensive industries operating in volatile or infrastructure-constrained environments face acute pressure to optimize Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) while maintaining operational continuity. SEA LION International Trade Co., Ltd. addresses this challenge through its specialized portfolio of professionally refurbished, OEM-certified used heavy trucks—primarily derived from SINOTRUK HOWO, SHACMAN F3000/F5000, and XCMG mining/logistics platforms. These assets undergo rigorous industrial-grade reconditioning to 98% operational readiness standards, delivering near-new reliability at 40-60% of new-unit acquisition costs.

Core Operational Advantages in Target Sectors:
– Mining: High-torque diesel platforms (380-460 HP) with reinforced chassis, differential locks, and dust-sealed drivelines withstand 24/7 payload cycles in abrasive conditions. Average payload capacity: 35-50 MT.
– Logistics: Optimized fuel economy (18-22% improvement post-refurbishment) and modular body compatibility (flatbed, lowboy, tipper) ensure route efficiency across fragmented regional networks.
– Construction: Compact turning radius (<7.5m) and hydraulic compatibility (e.g., XCMG crane carriers) enable operation in confined urban sites where new-unit deployment is cost-prohibitive.

Regional Market Preference Drivers (Africa, Russia, Southeast Asia):
The dominance of these certified pre-owned platforms in target markets is not coincidental but a direct response to operational pragmatism. Regional infrastructure limitations, harsh environmental conditions, and capital allocation constraints necessitate rugged, serviceable assets. SEA LION’s refurbishment protocol specifically targets these pain points:

Market	Critical Operational Requirement	SEA LION Solution	Impact
Africa	Extreme dust, poor road surfaces, limited service networks	Full driveline rebuild; upgraded air filtration (IP68); simplified maintenance protocols	30% reduction in unscheduled downtime; 25% longer service intervals
Russia	Sub-zero operation (-40°C), remote sites	Cold-start system certification; reinforced cabin heating; Arctic-grade lubricants	99.2% operational readiness in winter; no cold-weather failures in 2025 field data
Southeast Asia	High humidity, monsoon conditions, tight urban sites	Corrosion-resistant undercarriage coating; EGR system recalibration; compact cab variants	40% lower corrosion-related failures; 15% higher maneuverability in <5m lanes

Why SEA LION’s Certified Pre-Owned Trucks Outperform Generic Used Assets:
1. OEM-Aligned Refurbishment: 127-point inspection + critical component replacement (clutch, brakes, injectors) using original SINOTRUK/SHACMAN/XCMG parts.
2. TCO Transparency: Full digital maintenance history provided; 12-month driveline warranty included.
3. Deployment Velocity: Global RO-RO/container logistics network enables <30-day delivery to all target regions.

Strategic Imperative: In markets where equipment availability directly dictates project timelines and profitability, SEA LION’s certified pre-owned trucks eliminate the risk/reward trade-off inherent in used-asset procurement. By delivering OEM-grade reliability at refurbished economics, we enable fleet managers to allocate capital toward core operations—not contingency repairs. For construction and mining enterprises operating under margin pressure, this represents not merely a cost-saving measure, but a strategic enabler of sustained productivity.

1. Executive Summary

SEA LION International presents a comprehensive logistics analysis for the export of used trucks from China to Waco, Texas. This report evaluates three primary maritime transport methods—Roll-on/Roll-off (RO-RO), Bulk Cargo, and Flat Rack (Containerized)—based on cost, transit time, vehicle integrity, and corrosion protection. Special attention is given to wax-based anti-corrosion treatments to mitigate seawater exposure during transit.

---

2. Export Logistics Overview

Used trucks exported from major Chinese ports (e.g., Shanghai, Qingdao, Guangzhou) to the U.S. Gulf Coast (Port of Houston, nearest to Waco) require robust marine logistics planning. The average sea transit time ranges from 28 to 38 days, depending on routing and port congestion.

Key considerations:
– Vehicle operability upon arrival
– Structural integrity during ocean transit
– Protection against saltwater corrosion
– Customs clearance efficiency at U.S. ports
