Who We Are

Sourcing, inspection and export under one contract

Hengshuo export warehouse

Ningbo Hengshuo Supply Chain Management Co., Ltd. trades lightweight masonry out of Zhejiang. The team has worked in AAC, ALC and composite block export for more than ten years; the company itself was registered in Ningbo in August 2026. We buy from block and panel plants in Zhejiang and Shandong, not from listing platforms.

We visit the plants, check the batch before the doors close, photograph every seal and issue the export documents ourselves. That keeps the quote close to a mill price, and keeps one person answerable when a container arrives short.

Quotes, drawings and inspection reports are handled in English, and we work to AS/NZS references rather than a GB number alone — that is what a certifier will ask for. One container or a year's programme, the steps are the same.

Why Composite Self-insulating Blocks Win

Same structural wall, insulation built in.

Our process

How a shipment runs, start to finish

01

Factory audit

We visit the plant before it goes on the quote: autoclave count, mould tolerance, and the last three batches of test reports.

02

Sample panel first

A block or panel is couriered before the first container, so your certifier measures the product instead of reading a datasheet.

03

Pre-shipment inspection

Dimensions, density, strength, packaging and container condition checked before the doors close. The photo report goes out the same day.

04

Container loading

One 40HQ takes 55–65 m³ of block or 55–65 m² of 150 mm panel. We plan the stack so the last row is not scrap.

05

Export documents

Invoice, packing list, certificate of origin, test reports and bill of lading prepared in house and passed to your broker.

06

One contact throughout

The person who quotes the job also chases the factory and signs off the loading photos. No handover mid-order.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the minimum order quantity?

A 20ft container is our MOQ for most products. For samples or trial orders, we can arrange LCL (less-than-container load), though the per-cubic-metre cost is higher.

How long does shipping take to Australia?

From Ningbo or Shanghai: Sydney and Melbourne 14-18 days; Brisbane and Adelaide 18-22 days; Fremantle 20-24 days. Add 5-7 days for Australian customs clearance.

Do you provide test reports for Australian certification?

Yes. Every shipment includes a CNAS-accredited test report covering strength, density, thermal conductivity, fire resistance, frost resistance and dimensional tolerances. We also provide material data sheets and sample panels for CodeMark assessment.

What payment terms do you offer?

Standard terms are 30% T/T deposit with order, 70% balance after you confirm loading photos and video. For repeat customers, we can discuss other arrangements.

Can you supply other building materials beyond these five products?

Yes. We work with multiple Chinese factories across lightweight masonry, insulation and building systems. If your project needs something outside our standard range, tell us the specifications and we will source it for you.
