Why is it important?
Export packing is the process of preparing, packaging, and securing goods for international shipment. It’s about meeting international regulations, minimising risk, and ensuring smooth transit from start to finish.
Proper Export Packing:
- ✅Meets international shipping standards and ISPM15 compliance
- ✅Prevents corrosion, movement, and physical damage
- ✅Ensures faster, smoother customs clearance
- ✅Reduces risk of delays, fines, or rejected shipments
Neglecting can lead to:
- ❌ Customs rejection due to non-compliant materials
- ❌ Corrosion damage from poor moisture control
- ❌ Structural issues caused by bad securing
- ❌ Lost contracts or costly delays from damaged goods
What’s included?
Whether you’re shipping a single machine or coordinating a full facility move, everything needs to be packed to spec, not just boxed and labelled. Depending on your shipment, export packing may involve:
- Heat-treated timber cases (ISPM15 certified)
- Bespoke wooden crates, pallets, and cases for oversized or high-weight items
- Corrosion protection: VCI wraps, desiccants, foil barriers
- Shock and moisture-resistant materials for sea or air freight
- Shrink-wrap, foam lining, and secure strapping systems
- Factory relocation packing, including full on-site logistics
