For large-scale beer brewing equipment, the importance of transportation and delivery is no less than that of the equipment's manufacturing quality. Every tank, valve, and control system must be fully protected during transportation to ensure safety, integrity, and smooth installation.
At Tonsen Brewery Equipment, we understand that customers are purchasing not just equipment, but also a trust. Therefore, we provide every customer with a complete logistics and packaging solution, ensuring that you receive the entire system safely and on time, no matter which country or region you are in.
For customers in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Oceania, we mainly use sea freight. The complete system—including mashing systems, fermenters, and bright beer tanks—is typically loaded into 20GP, 40GP, or 40HQ containers. Each tank undergoes reinforcement, shockproofing, and rust-proofing treatments before container loading.
Advantages: Low cost, high cost-effectiveness, safety and stability. Ideal for large, heavy equipment and capable of transporting entire brewing systems at once.
Suitable for domestic shipments or neighboring countries (e.g., Russia, Kazakhstan, Mongolia). We use professional trucks or special vehicles for transportation, with our logistics team planning routes and loading methods to ensure safe delivery.
Advantages: Fast delivery, flexible loading/unloading, and compatibility with on-site installation services.
For customers in Central Asia and Eastern Europe, we offer China-Europe Railway Express services, balancing cost and efficiency.
Advantages: Shorter transit time than sea freight, lower cost than air freight, reliable, and fully trackable.
We provide air freight for small equipment or electrical control systems requiring urgent delivery. While costs are higher, it offers fast transit, making it suitable for emergency orders or prototype shipments.
To prevent collision, rust, or damage during transportation, we strictly adhere to international packaging standards:
- Stainless steel tanks: Wrapped in protective film + foam, reinforced with steel or wooden frames.
- Electrical control systems: Sealed in shockproof wooden crates.
- Valves and accessories: Packed separately with clear labels.
- Complete systems: Accompanied by detailed packing lists and serial numbers, with shipment photos recorded for each set.
This packaging method facilitates customs clearance and transportation, while also allowing customers to quickly identify equipment during installation.
- Equipment production completion → Pressure and performance testing
- Cleaning → Rust-proofing and shockproof packaging
- Photo documentation → Confirmation of equipment serial numbers and packing lists
- Container loading → Delivery to port → Customs declaration for export

We also offer DDP (Delivered Duty Paid) services upon request, where we handle all logistics details including customs clearance and transportation, leaving customers with no worries.
