How many tons can be loaded into a 20GP container for sodium gluconate exports? Packaging and logistics guide
Sodium gluconate and other gluconate products are typically exported in standard 20-foot general-purpose (20GP) containers. For importers and distributors, understanding container quantities, packaging methods, and palletization requirements helps accurately calculate landed costs and plan logistics.
I. Reference for 20GP Container Quantities
Shandong Definly Chemical’s standard packaging is 25 kg/bag or 1000 kg/jumbo bag. A standard 20GP container can hold approximately 24–27 tons (subject to slight variation depending on product density and stacking method); if palletized, the load is about 24 tons. For first-time orders, we recommend confirming the exact container capacity before scheduling shipment.
II. Packaging Method
First, 25 kg paper-plastic composite bags or woven bags with a PE liner: suitable for standard food-grade and industrial-grade shipments. Second, 1000 kg bulk bags: ideal for large-volume industrial orders, offering high handling efficiency. Third, cardboard drums: suitable for food-grade powders such as ferrous gluconate and copper gluconate, providing moisture protection and light shielding.
III. Delivery Schedule and Documentation
For standard orders, delivery takes 7–15 days after the deposit is paid; for custom packaging or labels, it takes 15–20 days. We provide COA, MSDS, TDS, packing list, invoice, and certificate of origin with the shipment. For food-grade orders, we also supply a health certificate and copies of Kosher/Halal certificates.

Q: How much can a 20GP hold? A: Approximately 24–27 tons; about 24 tons when palletized. Q: Can packaging be customized? A: Yes, 15–20 days. Q: MOQ? A: 1 ton.
