Looking for high-quality container floor (shipping container floor) or complementary container parts like container corner casting, Container Locking Device, and Lashing equipment? CIMC Equilink adheres to strict, detailed quality inspection standards for container floors—ensuring each product meets structural, performance, and safety requirements. Below is a complete breakdown of our inspection criteria.

Core Quality Inspection Items for Container Floors

We conduct comprehensive inspections across 7 key dimensions to guarantee reliability and consistency:

1. Basic Dimensions & Physical Parameters

Container floors must meet precise size and weight requirements to fit standard containers and withstand heavy cargo:

• Size Compliance: Matches contract specifications; diagonal difference ≤2mm, edge straightness error ≤0.5mm, thickness controlled at 28±0.75mm.

• Warpage & Twist: Warpage ≤1mm/m, twist ≤3mm/m; slot size meets design standards.

• Chamfers: 1~1.5mm × 45° chamfers on horizontal sides (as required); manually added if missing before shipment.

• Single Weight: Aligns with grade requirements (e.g., 58KG, 62KG).

2. Packaging & Storage Conditions

Proper packaging and storage prevent damage during transit and maintain product integrity:

• Storage: Indoor, dry, and ventilated environments to avoid moisture or deformation.

• Packaging Standards:

￮ Horizontal bags: 3 horizontal + 4 vertical straps.

￮ Vertical bags: 3 horizontal + 8 vertical straps (meets international shipping requirements).

3. Moisture Content

Moisture control is critical for preventing mold, decay, and structural weakening:

• Moisture content ≤12%; visual inspection for dampness before shipment.

4. Short Span Strength Test

Short span performance directly affects load-bearing capacity—tests follow global standards (e.g., IICL, Maersk):

5. Pressing Quality (Layer Structure)

The 19-layer plywood structure ensures durability and load-bearing capacity:

• Layer Requirements: 19 layers total; upper/lower 3 layers are whole boards (no splicing allowed).

• Fiber Direction: Upper/lower layers aligned longitudinally with the container (3x2 structure); 3x3 (upper/middle/lower longitudinal) or 5x2 (upper/lower 5 longitudinal) structures are also acceptable.

• Layer Integrity: Each layer is straight, uniform in thickness, and free of voids or delamination.

6. Visual Inspection (Surface & Defects)

Surface quality ensures safety and compatibility with forklifts/cargo:

• Smoothness: Upper surface is smooth, clean, and uniformly colored; no burrs or groove marks.

• Defect Limits:

￮ Cracks: No dense small cracks; single crack width ≤3mm, length ≤300mm, count ≤3 (repaired with color-matched putty).

￮ Joints: Diameter ≤30mm, count ≤3 per board.

￮ Edge Defects: Width ≤1mm, depth ≤2mm, cumulative length ≤50mm.

￮ No wormholes, pits, scratches, dead joints, decay, or sand penetration.

￮ No resin spills (may affect glue strength) or external oil stains.

7. Certificate & Mark Inspection

Traceability and compliance with international standards are mandatory:

• Certificates: Verify wood type (e.g., Apitong, Kurning, Hardwood), treatment agent type, and treatment time (suspect batches with excessive production lead time).

• Moth-Proof Treatment: Complies with Australian Department of Health standards (backed by supplier quality inspection reports).

• Stamps & Markings: Correct, non-counterfeit stamps on product surfaces and outer packaging (confirm authenticity).
