Transit Protection by Signode: For All Load Types
June 10, 2025
It doesn’t matter if goods are shipped on traditional pallets, paper-based platforms, slip sheets, or entirely without a base. Our solutions are designed with the load in mind to secure your products no matter their shape, size, or shipping method so they arrive intact at their destination.
As part of our customer-first approach to designing the right solution, our specialists will deep dive into:
- The type, size, and weight of your products
- How goods are currently packaged, handled, and shipped
- The transit environment (e.g., local delivery, export, intermodal)
- Existing equipment and automation levels
- Sustainability goals and material usage targets
We also can provide on-site evaluations to observe your packaging line in action; from this we can provide the recommendations to protect your products.
Load Containment
Our strapping, stretch wrapping, and stretch hooding systems are engineered to tightly secure products, preventing shifting, tipping, or collapse during transport.
These solutions adapt to both palletized and non-palletized loads, offering consistent containment across a wide range of applications.
Signode lashing solutions can anchor the load to fixed points so items remain tightly grouped and aligned, reducing the risk of shifting or collapse.
Structural Protection
To prevent crushing, abrasion, and strap damage, Signode offers edge and corner protectors that reinforce vulnerable areas of the load.
Shock and Vibration Resistance during Transit
During transit, loads are exposed to shocks, vibrations, and sudden movements. We provide systems that help absorb impact and maintain load integrity, especially in long-haul or export shipping. This includes polywoven and paper dunnage bags as well as void filling solutions.
Environmental Protection
For outdoor storage or international shipping, we have solutions that can provide a sealed barrier against moisture, dust, and UV exposure.
To further safeguard sensitive goods, desiccants can be incorporated within the packaging to control internal humidity and prevent condensation-related damage during long transit or storage periods.
Compatibility with Pallet Alternatives
Signode provides pallet alternatives to traditional wooden pallets. Such as slip sheets and paper pallets these solutions offer alternate methods for pallet transportation.
Tailoring the Solution
We can provide a tailored solution via testing as we support the installation, integration, and operator training. We design systems to work seamlessly with your existing infrastructure, minimizing downtime and maximizing throughput. Our relationship doesn’t end at installation. Signode provides ongoing support, maintenance, and reviews so your solution continues to meet evolving needs.
