Benefits:
- Prevents saltwater-induced pitting and galvanic corrosion
- Extends service life of moving components by up to 18 months post-import
- Reduces pre-commissioning maintenance costs by 30–40%
4. Recommendations
- Preferred Method: Flat Rack Containers for high-value, precision-excavators requiring maximum protection. Ideal for remote project sites with limited port infrastructure.
- Volume Shipments: RO-RO is cost-effective for fleet deliveries (>10 units) to developed ports with RO-RO capabilities (e.g., Dubai, Singapore, Rotterdam).
- Avoid: Bulk Cargo – unacceptable risk profile for machinery transport.
- Mandatory: Apply industrial wax spraying for all export-bound Yanmar units, regardless of shipping method.
5. Conclusion
Optimizing the export logistics of Yanmar excavators from China requires a balance between cost, protection, and delivery reliability. RO-RO and Flat Rack methods are viable, with Flat Rack offering superior equipment safeguarding. The integration of wax-based corrosion protection is non-negotiable for maintaining OEM integrity and minimizing post-import rework. SEA LION International advises fleet managers and construction logistics teams to standardize on wax-treated, Flat Rack shipments for critical infrastructure projects.
