Inner packaging/filling
  • Empty space within a package must be filled with packing material (paper, shaving, cotton, plastic foam, bubble wrap). If the empty space is not filled, items inside the package will not be stable, knock against each other and against the packaging thus standing a risk of sustaining breaking or other damage.
  • Do not use the box which is too big for your item and therefore requires filling as there is a risk that the box may be crushed during transportation.
  • The items must not have contact with the sides of the box and this can be ensured using packing material. Paper may be used for very light packages. Any gaps between the sides of a box and an item (including original manufacturer’s packaging) must be filled with packaging material.
