5) How to Packing Some Items
5.1) For electronic goods:
- Laptops, printers, phones, monitors ... using cushioning materials are foam, foam, soft foam. These are special pads such as polyethylene (PE), polyurethane (PU), and polypropylene (PP). These foams protect fragile items from collisions and affect normal handling conditions and maintain this level of protection throughout the distribution process. These foams are specially designed and pre-manufactured to match the size and weight of the product.
5.2) For fragile goods:
- The material used for fragile packaging is the air-tight bubble sheet. These bubbles have a shock-resistant function. When packing, use specialized packaging paper. This will prevent products from being damaged by bumps and protect the product from vibrations due to force transferred from outside the bin. Use enough foam to make sure not to move the item inside the bin when shaking the barrel.
5.3) For liquid bottles:
- Containers and bottles containing liquids must be sealed to prevent the liquid from flowing out even if it is inverted. If there are many bottles in a container, they must be separated by partitions or use elastic materials sealed between gaps to prevent product movement. Inserting materials such as air bubbles, foams, sponges and seeds.
5.4) For curled items:
- Drawings, maps ... are curled and put into plastic water pipes or covered with paper with toughness and then put into paper boxes.
5.5) For food packaging:
- Packaging is a container, covering food into an odd unit for sale. The packaging may consist of multiple coats, which can be completely covered or only partially covered. - When using quality packaging machines, packaging is packaged in three forms:
+ Sealed packaging - contains products that prevent the external environment from entering the food storage environment to ensure that the quality of the food is not altered during the preservation period.
+ Open packaging - direct packaging of fresh fruits or vegetables, foods not preserved, processed immediately.
