What is Export Packaging?
To make sure your export packaging is good enough so that your goods arrive intact and undamaged and reach your overseas buyer. Three main types of packaging that are likely to be needed for exported goods.
Transport or export packaging is the outermost layer of packaging and is designed to protect your goods during transit. Examples include wooden crates, metal drums and plastic shrink-wrapping.
Outer packaging is an intermediate layer of packaging, which often also serves a retail-promotion purpose.
Sales packaging is the immediate layer of packaging around your goods - the packaging that remains when the goods reach their end-user.
Labelling on product provides the following important information:
Shipper's Mark.
Country of Origin.
Weight Marking (in pounds and in kilograms).
Number of Packages and size of cases (in inches and centimeters).
Handling Marks (International Pictorial Symbols).
Cautionary Markings, such as This Side Up.
Port of Entry.
Labels for Hazardous Materials.
