Shipping is an essential part of importing from China to the US. Nowadays, many importers buy from wholesale sites, like Alibaba, Global Sources, or via the web to contact manufacturers and place an order from China, etc.
Especially, when you order a few LED grow lights, if you’re a distributor & reseller, you will know it is a huge package and heavy. People have to pay for that cost, which means that the costs lead to reduced profits.
As the markets and most manufacturers show us. 10kgs per light is normal, furthermore, you will not only for 1pc but sample.
According to the lights produced by us, usually in Top Lighting,
Carton size will be 1.12 meters in Length, 0.81 meters in width, and 0.14 meters in height.
Hence, the Volume weight will be:
112*81*14cm=127008cbm;
127008/6000 = 21 kgs per set.
Furthermore, according to what FedEx shows, the cost will be 7 to 7.5$ USD per kg
Total price will be: 21*7.5=157.5$ USD/ per set by air, which will be the final cost you get. Only one set.
Based on ROI, that is not worth it for most people.
If you order a batch of LED grow lights and get ready to ship, I absolutely will recommend you deliver by sea
Even though the cost is still not cheaper than others.
Here is the price we got from FedEx for sea delivery

As I said above, all of it, what I wanted to express is:
We noticed that one of the biggest problems you will face is that the shipping cost always takes up a large part of the total price of the goods. This means a lot of benefits will be lost for any reason.
In terms of this issue, we just developed and launched a type of LED grow lights that can solve this problem for most people, especially as a distributor you are.
Firstly, we redesign the body in the lights, and think about what kind of solutions people would like to accept, not only saving the cost but also being convenient to set up/ replace, and maintain.
Over a year round designing, below showing you a package carton size
Compared with the normal one with size 1120mm * 810mm *140mm
Here are the prices we based on 7$ USD/ per kg to calculate.
63.5*34.9*17.5cm=38782volume
38782/6000=6.46kgs/ volume weight
6.46*7=45$ usd/per set
G.W.(Gross weight) it will be 11.4±0.3 KG/25.1±0.66 lbs (A type which got 800watts)
Immensely reducing purchase cost & shipping cost. In addition, space-saving no matter is shipped by air or sea.
What is the light look like?
Here’s coming for you all. Below
Light bars can be replaced, which means that replacing any spectrum shouldn’t require paying for a whole new lights, but only ordering bars.
