Packaging:

WOOD PACKAGING

All clients need to know about the new globally implemented wood packing guidelines. According to U.S Customs and Border Security website the new regulations have been implemented, “with the goal of decreasing the risk of introducing plant pests into the United States.”

Wood packaging material MUST carry the ISPM15 mark, which has the universally recognizable, non- language specific IPPC logo and 3 codes. The mark allows for easy verification that the wood meets the necessary requirements during inspection at the point of export or import. The use of this mark allows the import requirements for wood packaging material to remain a paperless system. More information on this requirement and how to obtain treatment or acceptable pallets, crates and packaging material, is available on our website. We recommend palletizing on plastic shipping pallets and confirming treatment of crates prior to purchase. Any packing or palletizing that does not comply with this regulation will be refused or returned to origin, resulting in considerable delay.

INSULATION OF PERISHABLE FOODSTUFFS

With careful packaging, you can protect your products by providing appropriate temperature protection or stability. Perishable product should be packaged with enough insulation to prevent or reduce the transfer of heat through the container walls. Pack in Insulated EPS containers inside corrugated boxes allowing space for coolants.

DO NOT USE WET ICE FOR PACKING
Gel Refrigerants/Coolants are the easiest and safest method of refrigeration. Utilize the coolants according to the manufacturers guidelines. Pack securely to prevent shifting. Fill empty spaces with dunnage such as shredded paper or packing styrofoam.

Dry Ice can be used for packaging of frozen items. Many specific tips can help in packaging with dry ice. This information is available on our website for further review.
