Why the Customer Chose Air Freight

The Australian customer was working on a commercial fencing installation project and urgently required replacement aluminum fence panels from China.

Ocean freight transit times from China to Australia generally range between:

  • 18–30 days for sea freight

  • Additional customs and delivery time

  • Potential delays during peak seasons

Because the construction schedule was at risk, the customer selected BRF Shipping's express air freight service.

Key Benefits

Faster Delivery

Air freight reduced total transit time to less than one week.

Lower Project Risk

The customer avoided expensive construction delays and labor downtime.

Full Cargo Visibility

Real-time tracking and shipment updates were provided throughout transportation.

Professional Customs Handling

Our Australian customs team ensured smooth clearance upon arrival.



Aluminum Fence Shipping Requirements

Aluminum fencing is widely used in:

  • Residential fencing projects

  • Commercial buildings

  • Industrial facilities

  • Pool fencing

  • Security perimeter systems

Although aluminum fences are lighter than steel products, they require professional packaging to prevent:

  • Surface scratches

  • Impact damage

  • Bent sections

  • Moisture exposure

BRF Shipping arranged:

  • Protective wrapping

  • Corner protection

  • Export-standard palletization

  • Airline-compliant packaging

This ensured the shipment arrived in excellent condition.
