| Salt Spray Resistance | 500+ hours (ASTM B117 compliant) |
| Post-Transit Removal | Biodegradable citrus-based degreaser (non-corrosive) |
Note: Wax treatment is mandatory for all shipping methods but provides the most measurable ROI in RO-RO and Flat Rack, where direct seawater exposure is unavoidable.
Method-Specific Risk Assessment
| Risk Factor | RO-RO | Bulk Cargo | Flat Rack |
|---|---|---|---|
| Saltwater Exposure | High | High | Medium |
| Physical Impact (Cargo Shift) | Low–Moderate | High | Low |
| Theft/Vandalism | Low | Medium | Low |
| Delayed Unloading | Low | High | Medium |
| Regulatory Compliance | High (IMDG/CTU) | Variable | High (ISO standards) |
Recommendations
-
RO-RO – Recommended for fleet shipments (>5 units) where speed and operational simplicity are prioritized. Requires robust wax protection and post-arrival cleaning protocol.
-
Bulk Cargo – Only advised for budget-constrained projects with flexible timelines. High risk of damage and corrosion; not recommended for JD 210 without full crating.
-
Flat Rack – Optimal balance of protection, security, and global reach. Ideal for high-value markets (Europe, North America, Australia). Enables full wax coverage and structural bracing.
Conclusion
For the export of JD 210 Excavators from China, Flat Rack shipping combined with industrial-grade wax spraying provides the highest integrity solution for construction firms requiring reliable, corrosion-resistant delivery. RO-RO remains viable for volume logistics, while Bulk Cargo is discouraged due to elevated risk profiles.
SEA LION International enforces a zero-tolerance policy on corrosion control, with all units undergoing pre-shipment wax application and humidity-controlled storage prior to loading.
