Cargo package types

Cargo safety during transportation depends to a large extent on the right choice of packing materials.

Pallet collar (Euro pallet collar) is a modern and highly efficient wooden packaging solution for compact, bulky or friable products of different types, that works together with the classic wooden pallet or various types of custom pallets. This durable wooden container allows to regulate height and can be additionally fixed with polypropylene tape. Such package is good for transporting electric products, home appliances, photo products, optic items, medical equipment, office machines, appliances, and equipment. However, it is not used for transportation by air.
Wooden frame is a firm timber frame construction that is used for transporting out-of-gauge cargo, fragile goods and extra-sized items, e. g. dishware, ceramics, automobile spare parts and complex technical equipment. Not used for small freight. This package type increases transportation cost by approximately 25%.
Hard transportation cases are used for cargo that can not be packed in pallet collar and these also increase transportation cost by a quarter.
Bag with a sealing mark — small single-piece cargo in bulk (textile, clothes, printed goods, dunnage) can be packed in a bag to keep it clean and safe.
Bubble wrap is a pliable transparent plastic material commonly used for packing fragile items. Regularly spaced, protruding air-filled hemispheres (bubbles) provide cushioning for fragile items that need shock absorption or have cavities inside. Bubble wrap is fixed on the protected item with adhesive tape, and a sealing mark guarantees safety. Bubble wrap can be used as an independent package type, or in combination with others.
Cardboard boxes are primarily used for packaging small goods and materials under 35 kg (toys, medical equipment, dishware).
