Packing Guide

We do everything we can to ensure your packages are always delivered on time and in great condition but packages can travel many thousands of miles through sophisticated global network to reach their destinations. Therefore, packing your packages with appropriate materials in a right way will help ensure they arrive safely and stay intact.

Do your sender pack your package with oversea transportation in mind? When sender packing your package, he need to keep in mind that your package must be designed to handle the following stress factors, repeated loading and unloading, being unloaded in the rain and stored in the open, stacked, pushed, shoved, dragged, dropped, processed on a conveyer belt even sent down a chute.

At all times, it remains the responsibility of the sender to ensure adequate packaging is used. As a reference for our customers, this packing guide provides some general instructions and examples of good packing practices. Different shipment contents requires different level of protection, therefore this should not be perceived as a final solution suitable for all customers
