Shipments / Packaging
Choose the right packaging
Selecting the correct packaging is essential to protect your products during transport. Here are the key aspects to ensure your shipments arrive in perfect condition.
Packaging Strength
- Use sturdy corrugated cardboard boxes, especially when shipping heavy products or over long distances.
- Avoid using old or damaged boxes, as they may not withstand shipping conditions and could break.
Size and shape
- The item should not touch the walls of the box to prevent damage. Leave at least 5 cm of space around the product to add filler material.
- If the object has an irregular shape, use additional protective material to cushion potential impacts.
High-value and fragile products
- Use extra cushioning and special handling labels for fragile or high-value products.
- Utilize protective foam, bubble wrap, or pads for items like electronics or glass.
Packaging regulations
If the packaging needs to comply with specific regulations (such as retail packaging or safety standards), make sure to choose a design that meets regulatory requirements..
