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

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.

Aluminum Fence Shipping Requirements
Aluminum fencing is widely used in:
- Residential fencing projects
- Commercial buildings
- Industrial facilities

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

- Export-standard palletization
- Airline-compliant packaging
This ensured the shipment arrived in excellent condition.
