Life rafts are typically inflatable and individually packaged in protective containers. They may be bundled or palletized depending on quantity. These are sensitive items requiring protection from damage and the elements.
For sufficient quantities, FCL (Full Container Load) is recommended, offering optimal protection and control. Smaller quantities might be shipped as LCL (Less than Container Load), but this increases the risk of damage. OOG (Out of Gauge) and Breakbulk shipments are unlikely unless the life rafts are exceptionally large or unusually shaped.
FCL (Full Container Load): Best for larger shipments. Provides dedicated space and better protection against damage. Consider 20ft or 40ft containers depending on volume.
LCL (Less than Container Load): Suitable for smaller shipments. Shared container space increases the risk of damage; proper packaging is crucial. Requires careful handling and secure bracing within the container.
