Custom Export Packaging & Crating Services
When it comes to safeguarding your valuable items, custom crating is essential to ensure protection during transportation and storage. We provide export packaging services designed specifically to meet the unique needs of your products. Whether you’re shipping heavy machinery, fragile antiques, or sensitive electronics, our custom crates are meticulously designed to offer maximum security and durability.
Our Process
1. Design and Measurements
Each crate is tailored to the exact measurements of the items being shipped, ensuring a perfect fit. Special considerations are made for irregular shapes or extra-large objects, offering enhanced protection.
Size and Shape: Designed based on the specific dimensions of your items.
Protection: Padding, foam inserts, or custom compartments are included to prevent movement inside the crate.
Weight Considerations: Crates are built to accommodate the weight of your items, maintaining their structural integrity during transit.
2. Materials
We use the highest quality materials to ensure durability and protection.
Wood: Our crates are primarily made from sturdy woods like plywood or pine for heavy-duty applications.
Metal Reinforcements: For added strength, metal corner reinforcements or metal-framed crates may be used.
Other Materials: Lightweight or less fragile items may be crated with plastic or corrugated cardboard, offering a more economical option.
3. Custom Features
Our custom crates can be designed with additional features to enhance functionality and security.
Lift Points: We design crates with forklift access or lifting points for easier handling.
Weatherproofing: Crates can be sealed or treated to resist moisture, pests, or other environmental factors, particularly for international shipping.
Security: For high-value or sensitive items, we can include locks, tamper-evident seals, or other security features.
Branding or Markings: Custom crates can be branded with your logo, handling instructions, or other necessary markings.
4. Purpose and Use Cases
Our custom crates are ideal for a variety of applications, including:
Shipping: Perfect for international shipments, ensuring goods arrive safely from manufacturer to customer or retailer.
Storage: Custom crates provide long-term storage solutions, protecting items in warehouses or storage facilities.
