Brief

A customer in Barbados needed forty 12.8V 120Ah lithium batteries on a fixed deadline. Lithium batteries ship as dangerous goods, and one wrong label leaves the pallet waiting in customs.

Requirements

  1. 40 batteries in one consignment.
  2. Dangerous-goods packing and labelling.
  3. Paperwork to the freight forwarder's own requirements.
  4. Delivery on a fixed date.

Engineering response

We handled the battery side end to end: the packing configuration, the dangerous-goods labelling and the forwarder's specific paperwork.

With one supplier responsible for both the product and the documentation, there was no gap between battery vendor and shipping company for a problem to fall into.

Result

The shipment cleared and landed on time, with no damage and no paperwork queries, within 2 months of order.
