Export packaging is more than just putting your products in boxes. It's a critical service designed to protect your goods from the rigours of international shipping, whether by air, sea, or road. At Crating Solutions, we specialize in creating custom packaging solutions that meet the exact needs of your products, ensuring they arrive at their destination safely, securely, and in perfect condition.
The journey your goods take across the globe is fraught with potential hazards. From the physical demands of loading and unloading to the varying climates and conditions they'll face, your products need more than just standard packaging. Proper export packaging safeguards against damage, preserves the quality of your products, and ensures compliance with international shipping regulations. This is not just about protection; it's about delivering your goods in the same condition they left your hands, maintaining your reputation and customer satisfaction.
With Crating Solutions, you're not just getting a packaging provider; you're partnering with a team of dedicated experts who move your cargo with care anywhere in the world. Our services are meticulously designed to reduce costs and enhance the safety and efficiency of your shipments. From bespoke designs compliant with British Standard 1133:2011 and ISPM 15 regulations to mobile packing teams that can pack at your premises, we offer a full handling package tailored to the size, weight, and sensitivity of your items. Whether you're shipping fine art, heavy machinery, or hazardous goods, we have the expertise to ensure it's packed right.
Our packaging solutions are as varied as the items we protect, including cases and crates lined with protective materials, wooden skids designed for heavyweight cargo, and oversize packaging for out-of-gauge machinery.
