Services

Packing built around the load — and the clock.

From a single bespoke crate to a container of packed plant, we design it, make it and get it freight-ready. Based in Sparkbrook, Birmingham, we serve customers across the UK and worldwide.

Service 01

Export packing

We pack consignments for air, sea and road, planning protection, lifting and marking around the load and the route it will take.

That can mean a fully enclosed timber case, an open crate, a skid-based pallet, or packing plus container stow. The aim does not change: the goods should arrive as they left.

Bespoke crates, cases and pallets

We design and make wooden packing cases, open shipping crates and pallets to the size, weight and lifting method of your goods. Two-way or four-way entry, strengthened lifting points and stackable designs are part of the brief when they are needed.

For international routes we can make them in heat-treated timber marked to the ISPM15 standard. Plywood and softwood cases are built to each consignment, from lighter goods to heavy industrial loads.

Container loading

A well-made case is only half the job if the stow is left to chance. We load and secure cargo so it does not shift on the voyage — with dunnage, lashing, bracing and a plan that suits a full container or a part load.

We can also design packing to load cleanly from the outset, including skid bases and case sizes that make proper use of the container.

Service 04

Freight-ready packing

Packing is not finished until the consignment is ready for the forwarder. We mark cases with weights, identification and handling information, and can provide packing lists to travel with the goods.

Lift points, centres of gravity and stacking limits are designed in, so what leaves our works can be moved, lifted and stowed without guesswork.

Industrial packaging

Plant, machinery and awkward or heavy items need packing that supports the load, protects finished surfaces and gives the lifting crew a clear, safe way to move the case.

We pack industrial consignments to a specification agreed with you — including internal support, protective wrapping and timber bases designed for the weight.

Service 06

Case making, handling, storage and transport

Alongside export packing we make cases to order, handle cargo on site, and can hold packed consignments in secure short-term storage until they are ready to move.

Transport can be arranged around the packing programme, so collection, packing and onward movement sit in one clear sequence rather than a string of unconnected jobs.
