For businesses across every industry, keeping products safe through shipping is a top priority. Without considering your packaging effectiveness and leveraging protective shipping systems, you risk expensive product damage, hazardous unloading environments, and unhappy customers. But with the right expert shipping partner on your side, you can minimize risk and protect your products, shipping teams, and bottom line.
One essential component of keeping your cargo in its best condition is to use the right dunnage and packaging for your products. These solutions should be effective, reliable, and tailored to your specifications, from the modality you’re using to the size and shape of what you’re shipping. When you choose solutions designed specifically for your needs, you can feel confident in their effectiveness in every transit journey.
Dunnage and packaging effectiveness can be improved with a few key considerations, and they play a key role in preserving your bottom line. Read on to explore our top tips for boosting your dunnage and packaging performance — and get in touch with us today for customized support.
Dunnage and Packaging Effectiveness: Why it Matters
Your packaging and load securement solutions are the direct protection for your products and your team, so the choices you make for your products are vital.
Void filler and other load securement products help keep your cargo secure and prevent load shift. Without a load securement solution you can be confident in, your products can move during transit, which may risk product damage or an unsafe unloading experience. The type of dunnage you require may differ based on the products you’re shipping or the modality you choose. Sunrise offers a wide array of solutions to match your product needs. Sunrise honeycomb void fillers can also be customized from compressive strength to size, providing many versatile styles to choose from.
Corrugated Packaging offers direct protection and stability to your products. Whether you require a specialized packaging solution like die cut inserts or trays to unitize small products, or you’re in need of durable custom die cut boxes for protection that show off your company’s branding, you can choose strategic packaging to achieve your objectives. Not sure what you need? Choosing an expert packaging partner allows you to explore your requirements and specifications in order to get targeted product recommendations.
Your packaging pairs with your dunnage choices to maximize the effectiveness of your load securement system and set every shipment up for success.
Four Considerations for Improving Your Load Securement Solutions
Consider Your Materials
The materials you choose for your protective packaging and load securement matters! With corrugated materials, you can leverage an array of customizable options, lending extra protection to your products from loading to transit to distribution. Corrugated materials vary in compression strength, so you can get the exact support you need for your unique product types.
You can also rely on corrugated honeycomb-style dunnage to take advantage of this unique style’s benefits: it’s highly durable while remaining lightweight, allowing you to keep your products safe without added bulk or weight. We offer our corrugated load securement solutions in many formats, allowing you to leverage their unique benefits in whatever format best serves your needs.
Choose Custom Solutions to Boost Packaging Effectiveness
Don’t settle for one-size-fits-all for your load securement system. It’s critical to choose packaging and dunnage that is optimized for your unique specifications. Choosing customizable void filler, die cut corrugated products, and other solutions allows you to tailor your selection to the size and style of your products and their compressive strength requirements.
You can choose solutions based on your modality and industry, so you can keep your products safe with a proven approach. At Sunrise, we’re proud to serve a variety of industries, from food and beverage products to textiles and beyond.
