Correct Parcel Packaging
Packaging Material
Ideal packaging is hard and sufficiently strong cardboard or a cardboard box.
Moisture or wear on the packaging material can significantly affect its ability to protect the contents of the parcel.
The size of the packaging should always match its contents. The contents of the parcel should therefore neither "float" inside nor protrude out of the packaging.
Placing the Object into the Packaging
Place the contents of the parcel preferably in the middle to eliminate the possibility of damage.
Fill the space around the contents with any soft material. Suitable materials are for example newspaper, torn paper or cardboard, air cushions or polystyrene fixing blocks.
If you are sending multiple products in one parcel, we recommend separating them with cardboard to minimize the risk of mutual damage.
We recommend maintaining deformation zones of at least 3 cm on all sides inside the parcel.
Securing the Parcel with Tape
Tape the parcel so that nothing can fall out. The best way is to attach the tape in a crisscross pattern.
If necessary, re-tape the parcel in other risk areas such as box edges, joints, flaps, etc.
Is the Parcel Ready for Shipping?
The parcel is intended for cumulative transport and should therefore be packaged in a way to carry at least eight times its weight.
