Knock Down Packing For Desks What Importers Should Check

Carton Thickness Against Top Material

The desk range here packs in cartons from 5 cm to 12.5 cm thick, depending on whether the top is wooden or tempered glass. Glass top models such as the CD-8337 need more protection per centimetre of carton than a wooden top.

Net Against Gross Weight

Published net and gross weights on this range run from 7.5 kg net on the TD-1902B to 22.4 kg net on the TD-2003. The gap between net and gross tells you how much packaging is actually protecting the goods.

Frame Tube Size

Ask for the tube section, not just powder coated steel. The TD-1923 uses 25 x 25 x 0.8 mm powder coated steel. Wobble complaints trace back to this line more often than to the assembly.

Carton Marking

The desk range is marked with two colour carton marks in brown boxes. For retail and e-commerce channels, carton marking is what keeps the returns process from becoming a guessing exercise.

Assembly Hardware

Confirm that fixings are bagged per carton rather than per pallet. A missing bag turns a saved freight cost into a returned order.
