Tianjin Xinyue Steel has successfully cooperated with steel pipe stockist from Africa over past 5 years. The order quantity has steadily grown from one 20” GP container trail order of 5 years ago to current stable order of 100mt per month. The client has rapidly grown from a small retail shop to a large-scale comprehensive stockist who has many warehouses & retail shops all over the country. Their scope of products has also been widen from single GI pipe to SMLS ,SHS & RHS pipe. Client is much appreciated about our rapid feedback, specialized guidance on price movement, consistent high QA products, and comprehensive resource integration.

At early this year, client wanted to purchase 6meter GI pipes instead of 3meter pipes of our previous orders, to break through the length limit. But the local transportation cost of 40” GP containers is much more expensive than 20”GP’s in South Africa. To reduce the inland transportation cost of 6meter GI pipe and improve their competitiveness in local market, our logistics department did all their efforts and worked out a complete loading plan which can load 6meter length GI pipe into 20 ft container (Inner length of 20ft container is only 5900mm), that including the exact loading steps, drawing details, reinforce and nest pipes.

Eventually one of our shipment forwarder who has the greatest operational capacity successfully loaded and shipped 6meter into 20ft container as our drawing, without any damage of pipes or containers. client was very satisfied with our professional service on shipment and have booked other 4 containers new order once the pipes arrival.
