With the likes of Amazon, Blue Apron, and many types of clothing subscriptions bringing everything you need directly to your door, shipping has never been more popular. Because of that, anyone who finds themselves shipping and receiving items in the mail should always remember to do their best to make sure fragile items are handled with care. Chipboard layer pads and other items from General Partition Company, Inc. can help keep your items safe even if you’re shipping some of these commonly damaged items.
Glasses and Fine China
Coffee mugs, glasses and other pieces of fine china can easily be found broken upon arrival. Making sure to wrap each mug and beer stein doesn’t always do the trick. However, polycoated chipboard and other box partitions can raise the likelihood of your items arriving at their destination in perfect condition.
Electronic Items
Due to their awkward shape and fragile makeup, electronic items are some of the most commonly damaged or broken items caused by shipping. Televisions, computers, gaming systems and cameras are all manufactured using small fragile electronic parts and circuit boards. Since most of these parts are fairly pricey and have an inability to absorb contact, electronic items should be wrapped tightly and shipped with the correct dividers and packaging. Some products may need the protection of ESD packaging material. This type of board protects against electrostatic discharge which can damage electronics permanently.
Decorations
Wall decorations, handmade ornaments, and Christmas decorations are all items that can be easily damaged if not properly shipped. Adding the use of a cost effective box partition will save you the trouble of dealing with damaged goods and unhappy customers . Similar to glass and fine china, decorations should be treated with a little extra care when shipping.
