From design to material selection—stock and custom boxes in small bundle or pallet quantities—and in-house testing capabilities, we’ll ensure your products are properly protected from the rigors of shipping.
Custom Pallets and Crates
No matter the product, or how it is being shipped, our engineers can develop unique pallet and crate packaging designs that provide superior protection and easy handling. We design custom cushioned pallets and foam-lined wood crates that minimize vibrations and protect sensitive products. Whether you’re shipping locally or overseas, we can design the proper container.
Protective Packaging and Dunnage
We solve challenging packaging situations, from limited run parts with complex shapes and accessories to cost-effective product packaging for high-volume goods. Our protective packaging and dunnage are meticulously fabricated to perfectly fit your products and are available in any quantity. We offer all the foams commonly used for protective packaging, including bubble pack and lightweight polyethylene rolls.
Point of Purchase Displays
We work with you and your display specialists to design and fabricate custom point-of-purchase displays that both protect and add a look of professionalism and sophistication to any product. We help you select the best material that can be cost-effectively fabricated to create protective foam displays that look great in highly visible applications.
