Specialty Shipping Crates – For Long Products

Protecting long products can be challenging for various reasons. Signode understands this and provides speciality shipping crates to cater to different customers’ needs. Our industrial shipping crates work well for products such as bars, rods, tubes, pipe, window treatments and blinds. Our shipping crates also offer a good replacement for circular tubing packaging. 

What are the Challenges of Packaging Long Products?

Protecting long products can be challenging for various reasons: 

  • Size irregularities exceed standard packaging dimensions, making them incompatible with off-the-shelf boxes or cartons.
  • Longer products offer a unique handling challenge as they can be difficult to stack or fit into the delivery unit.
  • To maintain structural integrity as long products can be prone to bending, snapping or warping during transportation. 
  • Long items may have delicate surfaces or ends that require extra protection from impact, moisture, or abrasion.
