China government announced new policy on truck load in mainland

On September 21, 2016, China government announced new policy on truck load in mainland. 

This new policy effected a lot for heavy products exportation, especially for building materials 

industries like ceramics, glass, cement, stainless steel... Limited weight and height to make a 

greater impact on the float glass market, in particular lead to the plate glass more than 2440mm 

is more difficult to transport. The detailed weight limitation of each container type as below: 

1.   20ft container  
Gross weight over 10 tons can not be mixed with other products.  

2. 40ft container, GP & HQ 
Weight limiattion 25 tons. 

3. 40ft HQ container 
For shipping the container, the height couldn’t over 4200mm, the total length not over 22.1meter 


To our clients, this new policy may cause purchase cost increased for below reason: 

1)  the transportation cost will be increased immediately.  
2)  weight limitation caused less glass loaded in each container, the average cost of local 

charges is so increased. 

Please double check with our sales team with details before order! Thanks for your 

attention!
