Case Making
Concerned about the safety of your exports during transit? At John Pipe International, we craft bespoke wooden cases tailored to your cargo’s unique requirements, offering 10 distinct styles to align with your transportation mode. Especially indispensable for high-value or heavy goods, our cases provide an unmatched defence against external elements. And while foil-wrapping shields against moisture, our robust cases guarantee an additional layer of protection, ensuring your exports reach their destination unscathed.
Defence and Aerospace Packing
John Pipe International boasts MPAS-approved expertise, handling everything from polybag packing to intricate military containers. Each container, shaped by the Service Packaging Instruction Sheet (SPIS), ensures MoD compatibility and optimal protection. We also offer swift ‘same day’ in-house carton crafting and comprehensive labelling. For tailored defence and aerospace packing solutions, we’re your go-to partner.
Aluminium Foil Packing
At John Pipe International, we prioritise your export’s safety. Using foil-wrapping with added desiccant, we seal your equipment, then extract some air to diminish ambient moisture and bulk size. Each item, once wrapped, is then encased in a custom-built wooden container for optimal protection. Whether you bring your items to us or prefer an onsite visit, we design the ideal packing solution tailored to your needs.
Packing Dangerous Goods
Handling dangerous goods demands utmost precision. At John Pipe International, our trained personnel stand ready to streamline your shipping process, whether it’s raising air or sea freight declarations for dangerous goods. Mistakes can be costly, both in human and monetary terms, but proper procedure doesn’t have to break the bank. Trust in our facilities and expertise to pack your goods compliantly and safely, ensuring smooth transit and peace of mind.
