| Delay Due to Port Handling | Low | Medium | Medium |
6. Recommendations
- Preferred Method – RO-RO: For operational Terex units where cost-efficiency and faster discharge are priorities. Requires functional equipment and trained operator for roll-on/off.
- Alternative – Flat Rack: For non-operational, damaged, or oversized units. Offers superior protection and compliance with ISO container standards.
- Avoid – Bulk Cargo: Not recommended due to unacceptably high risk of corrosion and structural damage during extended voyages.
- Mandatory Protection: Apply industrial-grade wax spraying treatment for all export units regardless of method. Document application with pre-shipment inspection report.
7. Compliance & Certification
All shipments must comply with:
– IMO CSS Code (Cargo Securing Manual)
– IMDG Code (for fuel and hydraulic fluids)
– China Customs Export Declaration (Form C-1)
– Bill of Lading (Claused if damage observed)
Inspection prior to loading to be conducted by a third-party surveyor (SGS, Bureau Veritas, or equivalent).
8. Conclusion
For reliable, scalable export of Terex excavators from China, RO-RO shipping with wax corrosion protection represents the optimal balance of cost, speed, and equipment integrity for operational units. Flat Rack containers are the preferred solution for non-operational or high-value configurations. Bulk cargo transport is not advised under standard project risk tolerances.
