Buying guide

Tips from packaging experts.

Practical advice for furniture businesses.

Protect corners first

Fit corner protectors before wrapping. Corners take most of the damage.

Keep wrap off fresh finishes

Use kraft paper as the first layer on freshly finished timber, then add bubble wrap.

Bag and label hardware

Pack screws and fittings in a labelled bag taped inside the box or to the piece.

Wrap for the truck

Pieces rub against each other in transit. Wrap every surface that could touch another piece.
