8\u00d74ft\u00a0corrugated plastic sign<\/a>, which is about 2.44\u00d71.22 m, will therefore weigh around 2.1-3.0 kg.<\/p>\nIn comparison, a 0.5 mm solid aluminum sheet will weigh around 1.35 kg\/m\u00b2, whereas 3 mm aluminum composite panels are known to weigh 3-4 kg\/m\u00b2.<\/p>\n
These values are estimates for indicative purposes, check the exact weight with your producer prior to ordering.<\/p>\n
One advantage of using a light corrugated PP sign is ease of handling and installation. It can also decrease your cost of freight shipping, if the rate is calculated based on actual weight. However, flat sheets still occupy cargo area; thus, volumetric freight cost is still a matter of importance.<\/p>\n
Before you proceed with importing, be sure to ask for the following information:<\/b><\/strong><\/p>\n\n- Weight per sheet and per square meter.<\/li>\n
- Sheet size and thickness.<\/li>\n
- Packagesize and gross weight.<\/li>\n
- Number of sheets per pallet, per carton and per container shipment size and volume.<\/li>\n
- Approximate number of containers loaded per shipment.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
