Shipping & Logistics Solutions
Industrial Specification Report 2026
Prepared for Fleet Managers & Construction Companies
Subject: Logistics Solutions for Exporting Sinotruck 6×4 Howo NX Hohan Tipper Trucks from China
1. Executive Summary
This report evaluates the optimal maritime logistics methods for exporting the Sinotruck 6×4 Howo NX Hohan Tipper Truck from manufacturing hubs in China (e.g., Jinan, Shandong) to global destinations. The analysis focuses on three primary shipping methods: Roll-on/Roll-off (RO-RO), Bulk Cargo, and Flat Rack (Containerized). Each method is assessed for cost, transit time, handling efficiency, vehicle protection, and compatibility with industrial-scale fleet procurement. Additionally, corrosion mitigation through wax-based protective spraying is evaluated as a standard preservation protocol during ocean transit.
2. Equipment Overview: Sinotruck 6×4 Howo NX Hohan Tipper
| Parameter | Specification |
|---|---|

| Cargo Capacity | 20–25 m³ (approx.) |
| Dimensions (L×W×H) | 8,500 × 2,500 × 3,800 mm (approx.) |
| Weight (Unladen) | 14,500–16,000 kg |
| Fuel Type | Diesel |
| Origin | China (Sinotruck, Jinan) |
3. Shipping Method Comparison
| Criteria | RO-RO (Roll-on/Roll-off) | Bulk Cargo Vessel | Flat Rack Container (2x 40ft) |
|---|---|---|---|
| Loading Mechanism | Self-propelled or towed onto vessel | Lifted by vessel crane or port gantry | Secured on open-top flat rack units |
| Vehicle Compatibility | Excellent – designed for wheeled heavy vehicles | Good – requires stable lifting points | Good – requires secure lashing points |
| Handling Time (Port) | 15–30 min per unit | 45–90 min per unit | 60–120 min per unit (incl. lashing) |
| Transit Time (Asia to MENA/Africa) | 25–35 days | 30–40 days | 30–40 days |
| Port Infrastructure | Requires RO-RO terminal (limited globally) | Standard bulk terminal | Standard container terminal |
| Cost per Unit (USD) | $2,800–$3,500 | $2,200–$2,800 | $3,800–$4,600 |
| Risk of Damage | Low (minimal handling) | Medium (crane sling risk) | Medium-High (lashing failure, weather exposure) |
| Scalability (Fleet Orders) | High (up to 100+ units/voyage) | Medium (limited by crane capacity) | Low-Medium (space-constrained) |
| Insurance Premium | Lower (standardized process) | Moderate | Higher (exposed cargo) |
| Best For | High-volume fleet deliveries; time-sensitive | Cost-sensitive, non-urgent shipments | Oversized units; non-RO-RO accessible ports |
Note: RO-RO is the preferred method for Sinotruck 6×4 units when destination ports support it, due to speed, safety, and reduced mechanical stress.
4. Corrosion Protection: Wax-Based Anti-Seawater Coating
Marine environments pose a significant risk of saltwater-induced corrosion on exposed undercarriages, suspension systems, and chassis frames during ocean transit.
Recommended Protocol: Wax Spraying Protection (WSP)
| Feature | Specification |
|---|---|
| Application Method | High-pressure spray (automated booth or manual) |
| Coverage Areas | Chassis rails, suspension joints, brake lines, wheel hubs, exhaust system |
| Coating Type | Solvent-based anti-corrosion wax (e.g., wool wax + inhibitors) |
| Thickness | 50–80 µm (uniform layer) |
| Salt Spray Resistance | >1,000 hours (per ASTM B117) |
| Duration of Protection | Up to 6 months (open sea exposure) |
| Removal Process | Biodegradable solvent wash or steam cleaning |
| Cost per Unit | $120–$180 |
Benefits:
- Prevents galvanic and pitting corrosion during humidity cycles.
- Non-abrasive; does not interfere with mechanical components.
- Complies with ISO 9227 (corrosion testing standards).
- Easily integrated into pre-shipment preparation line.
Mandatory Recommendation: All units shipped via RO-RO, Bulk, or Flat Rack must undergo WSP treatment prior to loading. SEA LION International applies WSP as standard in pre-export conditioning.
5. Logistics Route Optimization (Example: China → Saudi Arabia)
| Method | Origin Port | Destination Port | Transit Time | Avg. Cost/Unit | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| RO-RO | Qingdao | King Abdullah Port | 28 days | $3,200 | Direct service; weekly departures |
| Bulk Cargo | Shanghai | Dammam | 34 days | $2,500 | Shared vessel; 2-week scheduling delay |
| Flat Rack | Ningbo | Jeddah | 36 days | $4,200 | Requires transloading; high lashing risk |
6. Recommendations
-
Primary Method: Utilize RO-RO shipping for fleet orders of 10+ units where destination port infrastructure supports it. Offers optimal balance of cost, speed, and protection.
-
Secondary Option: For non-RO-RO ports, Bulk Cargo is cost-effective but requires strict supervision during lifting operations.
-
Niche Use Case: Flat Rack only for oversized configurations or regulatory exceptions; not recommended for routine fleet logistics.
-
Preservation Standard: Implement wax spraying protection (WSP) across all export units. Non-negotiable for warranty compliance and long-term durability in coastal and desert environments.
-
Fleet Coordination: Bundle shipments to align with RO-RO vessel schedules (typically weekly or bi-weekly departures from Qingdao/Ningbo).
7. Compliance & Documentation
All shipments comply with:
– IMO International Maritime Solid Bulk Cargoes (IMSBC) Code (for Bulk)
– CTU (Cargo Transport Unit) Code (for Flat Rack)
– RO-RO Safety Guidelines (CSS Code, IMO)
– CIQ Pre-shipment Inspection (China)
– Certificate of Conformity (CoC) – available per unit
