Packaging & Shipping

Q: Do you include spare parts?

Yes—typically 5–10% for standard components and ~1% for controllers, subject to the order and project needs (final list confirmed on PI).

Q: How long does shipping take?

Typical ranges: sea freight 20–40 days depending on route; air freight 5–10 days door-to-airport; courier 3–7 days for small consignments. Exact lead time depends on carrier schedules and customs.

We pack and ship project-grade lighting safely and efficiently—cartons and EPE foam for luminaires, felt and bubble wrap for poles, and ISPM 15-compliant crates for components. Each shipment is labeled, counted with extra items, and backed by SDS/UN38.3 and IMDG/IATA DGR compliance for lithium batteries.

Export Packaging Standards

The products are being loaded into the container, and the warehouse staff next to them are recording the inspection form

01 – Standard Export Packaging

Luminaires are protected with EPE foam and strong cartons; poles are wrapped with felt and bubble wrap; battery and electronics are packed in ISPM 15 wooden crates. Lot labels and barcodes ensure traceability during inbound checks.

02 – Extra Quantities & Item Labels

We add extra quantities and clear item labels so your team can verify and install faster upon receipt.

03 – Regular Spare Parts

We include spare parts to reduce downtime—typically 5–10% for standard components and ~1% for controllers, subject to the order and project needs. (Final list is confirmed on PI.)

Container Loading Plan

01 – Professional Container Loading Plan

We design 20GP/40GP/40HQ loading plans with stable stacking, corner protectors, stretch wrap, and moisture control. This maximizes capacity and minimizes transport risk.

02 – Safe Lithium Battery Transport

We provide SDS (formerly MSDS) and UN38.3 test summaries, and ship under IMDG Code (sea) or IATA DGR (air), with the correct UN classification (e.g., UN3480/UN3481, as applicable). Batteries are shipped in a fully disconnected state to prevent accidental activation.

03 – Multiple Shipping Options

Sea, air, courier, and door-to-door with customs clearance—chosen by lead time, cost, and product type. We tailor the route to meet your project schedule.

04 – From Our Door to Yours
