LEVELS OF PACKAGE

There are these levels to go through while packing:

  • Primary Package- means the product’s immediate wrapper or container or cover right after it is produced.
  • Secondary Package- adding additional layers over the primary package to increase its protection level.
  • Shipping Package- It is an additional external layer added to the products for storage, identification, bulky handling, transportation, and protection for distant distribution and long-time storage.

Package your products for strength, inside each box and on the pallet



3 TECHNIQUES TO PROPERLY PALLETIZE SHIPMENTS

Secure packaging with these septs:

  1. Effectively Shrink Wrapping Your Cargo- you should have 5 layers of shrink wrapping surrounding your cargo with the upwards “X” pattern on each side of the cargo.
  2. Vibration Damage Avoidance- properly stacking your cargo. If you have stiffer boxes, place your heaviest cargo in it, package it tightly, and place the box at the bottom of the pallet.
  3. Bracing and Protecting- we highly suggest creating a protective wall around your goods, helps to keep cargo secure to the pallet when shrink-wrapped, and resistant to tears and scrapes.

HOW TO PACK PALLETS?


- CHOOSE THE RIGHT PALLET -


Use a pallet that is large enough so that your shipment does not overhang the edges.


- STACK IN COLUMNS -


Stack the boxes in columns and try to distribute the weight evenly across the pallet.

- DO NOT OVERHANG -


Pallets which have items over hanging them can become damaged easily and will not be accepted.

- KEEP IT FLAT -


Keep the top level of the pallet flat to minimise risk of loss or damage to cartons.


- LABEL -


Remove old labels and seal the flap.

To make sure it sticks, put the label on the boxes not the plastic.

- SECURE THE SHIPMENTS -


When shrink wrapping the items on the pallet, ensure that the shrink wrap goes around the base of the pallet as well.

PACKING RIGHT- AVOIDING COSTS!



MIXED PALLET 

In case of mixed pallets, items may not be overlapped!
