April 27, 2007, Newsletter Issue #61: Custom Boxes

Tip of the Week


If you pack and ship specialized equipment, delicate materials, or other items with special shipping needs, a custom shipping box might be just what you need to make sure your mail arrives safely at the destination. There are companies that specify in custom boxes, including die-cut boxes and UN-approved packaging. Many retailers turn to these custom boxes, but those in the material handling industry may also find themselves in need of such customized containers. Some companies make custom cases of more durable material such as plastic and metal, but these are designed as carrying cases first. However, if you have especially sensitive materials with limited mailing needs, you may wish to consider such rugged cases to additional protection, if the situation warrants.
