Packing Glass and Ceramics Before Air Shipping

Glass and ceramic pieces are protected with separating layers between them and a solid carton with no moving space inside. Write the names of the fragile pieces in the order note, because the packing is arranged around them.

Separating the pieces

Fragile pieces are separated with protective layers so they do not rub: cups, plates and lids each sit in their own place. Rubbing is the first cause of breakage in parcels, and separation prevents it.

The solid carton

The pieces go into a solid carton with no empty space that lets the contents move. Empty space leaves the pieces knocking during transport, so it is filled in a way that holds them without pressing on them.

What to write in the note

Name the fragile pieces in the order note, and if a piece is high value tell us so we arrange extra protection. Early information beats discovering the fragility at packing time.

With the rest of the order

A fragile piece does not share a carton with heavy pieces without arrangement, because the heavy ones press on it. Correct distribution inside the parcel is part of the protection, and we arrange it before shipping.
