Parcels can travel many thousands of miles through IEC’s sophisticated global network to reach their destinations. IEC does everything to ensure packages are always delivered on time and in great condition.

We assess what is best for what you are shipping.

Quality packaging is key when it comes to preventing damage. Assessing your packing needs is an important step to determine what’s best for the type of goods you wish to transport.

We choose good quality packaging to protect your shipment during transportation. IEC provides a range of packaging supplies that are tried and tested.

Quality Material

  • We use high quality corrugated cardboard boxes for parcels. For fragile or heavy items, double-wall or tri-wall wooden constructions are recommended.
  • We avoid reusing old boxes as they may have lost some of their rigidity.

Strength

  • We look for the manufacturer stamp which tells you information about the construction type and strength of a box.

Size

  • Under-filled boxes may collapse and over-filled boxes may burst. We prevent this by choosing a box with the right size for the content being shipped.
