The standard systems of packaging for shipment have two purposes:

• To provide protection against ingress of moisture and contamination of the surfaces
• To protect the packages under rough handling

Deliveries within Europe are usually made by covered trucks. Overseas shipment is preferably made in containers.

Pressboard sheets are stacked on a pallet. The pile of sheets is sealed against moisture ingress by welded plastic foil, and further protected with wrapped paper. A cover sheet is put on top for mechanical protection, and the stack is secured by steel strapping, cf. figure. For overseas shipment the pallet is completed to a cage of wood on all sides against rough handling.

Flat parts and long strips are likewise sealed in plastic.

Cylinders and moulded parts, etcetera, are bulky goods. They will be nested, if possible, inside each other, hermetically sealed in plastic foil, and usually packed in cardboard boxes or lightweight crates.

Marking and identification of the packages will be made according to customer's request.
