Shipping crates – finishing and equipping

Internal components include forms, brackets and other components for safe storage and shipping. External elements can include locks, hinges, hardware, wheels, steel reinforcements, etc.
Crate monitoring
Upon request we can equip your crate with tilt, humidity, temperature and shake sensors, which enable you to easily monitor the condition of your cargo.
Shipping crate markings
All our shipping solutions contain relevant, legible and durable markings based on the cargo, its destination, etc. The graphical symbols on the containers make the shipping and control procedures fast and smooth.
Basic packaging and information marks provide information on the key features of the cargo and its destination. Every cargo contains the name of the recipient, the address, a 2-character ISO country code, number assigned to the packaging manufacturer by the national plant protection organization and the IPPC abbreviation. The data placed on all packaging solutions also includes size and weight, as well as the contents and the sender of the shipping crate.
Handling markings placed on the shipping crate or packaging provide information on how to handle the cargo during shipping, loading and unloading, storing in a warehouse and other transport-related processes. Each cargo is always appropriately marked according to its properties, e.g. goods that are breakable, fragile and sensitive to shocks bear special markings. There are also separate markings for goods that mustn’t be exposed to sun, humidity or high/low temperatures. Depending on the specific load or packaging sometimes we also use signs prohibiting the use of hooks and indicating proper attachment points. Finally, each cargo has its center of gravity clearly marked.
