Container Loading Recommendation for 12″ × 500′ × 15 Mic Aluminum Foil Rolls
Due to the high product weight, 12″ × 500′ × 15 Mic aluminum foil rolls are generally shipped in 20GP containers.
Although a 40GP or 40HQ container offers significantly more loading volume, the maximum payload of these containers is approximately 28 tons. Based on our loading calculations, a fully loaded 40GP or 40HQ would exceed the allowable weight limit by a large margin.
For this reason, a 20GP container is usually the most practical and cost-effective shipping solution for this product. It helps importers avoid overweight risks while optimizing freight costs.
