FOB Tianjin / Qingdao, Packed for the Sea.
Our default load ports are Tianjin and Qingdao. If you run your own forwarder, we load to your booking. If you would rather not handle the import at all, ask for the door-to-door price instead.
Capped, Protected and Wrapped Before It Sees a Crate
Fittings are handled as the precision parts they are: thread caps on the threaded ends, anti-rust protection on the machined surfaces, then moisture-barrier wrapping around the bundle.
That is what keeps a 96-hour salt spray result intact through weeks at sea and months on your rack. Loose packing undoes good plating faster than anything else in the shipment.
The Packing List on Every Shipment
2–3 m³ Solid Wooden Crates, Built for Sea Freight
Crates are solid wooden export crates sized around 2–3 m³ — not cartons strapped to a pallet. They take the stacking and the handling that a container and a port put them through on the way to you.
A crate built properly means the fittings arrive square: no parts rattling against each other, no plating rubbed off the corners of an elbow before the crate is even opened.
Sea Freight by Default, Air When Something Is Down
Production runs about 15 days on custom orders. The sea leg is the long part: door-to-door sea transit typically runs 30–45 days by destination.

| Door-to-door DDP | We handle freight, customs clearance and duties through to your delivery address | You have no import licence on file, or this is a first import |

Your Booking, Our Loading Bay
If you already have a forwarder, we work to your booking: you nominate the port and the booking reference, we load the crates to it and hand the shipment over to your agent.
What We Need From You to Load
Not Handling the Import Yourself?
Most Chinese factories quote FOB and stop there. We also quote door to door: freight, customs clearance and duties handled on our side, with the shipment delivered to the address you give us.
It is the route for buyers without an import licence on file, and for first-time importers who would rather not assemble a broker, a forwarder and a clearance agent before the first order ships.
What Door-to-Door Covers
Send the part list and the destination port
The export desk quotes FOB from Tianjin or Qingdao and confirms the packing and loading plan with the quotation — first reply within 2 working hours. If you have never imported before, ask for a door-to-door price instead.
