Export Packing for SGZ Plate and Anodes
Inner carton with outer wood pallet or wood case, labelled SGZ, built for long-distance shipping.
Overview
What This Product Is
SGZ ships on pallets and in cases: an inner carton with an outer wood pallet or wood case, which SGZ describes as very good and firm for long-distance transportation. Every package carries the SGZ label, which is also how a buyer tells genuine plate from resold stock.
Two levels of protection
Inner carton inside an outer wood pallet or wood case.
Built for the voyage
Firm enough for long-distance transportation.
SGZ label
The SGZ label on the package is part of how you verify the goods.
New box packing
A new designed box packing is also available, shown in the SGZ packing video.
Who it is for
Buyers Who Specify It
Overseas plate buyers
Customers importing plate by sea who need it to arrive flat.
Distributors
Traders breaking pallets down for a regional market.
Freight forwarders
Handlers who need to know how the goods are presented.
Anode and tooling plate buyers
Heavy items that need crating rather than palletising.
Problems it solves
What Goes Wrong Without It
- Plate that shifts in transit arrives bent and cannot be etched flat. The wood pallet and case hold it firm.
- A long sea voyage exposes bare metal to damp. The inner carton is the first barrier.
- Unlabelled goods make it impossible to tell genuine SGZ plate from resold or second-hand material. SGZ labels its packages.
- Heavy anodes and thick tooling plate need a wood case rather than a pallet, which SGZ supplies.
