Shipping Crates

The enduring popularity of wooden shipping crates isn’t simply tradition—it’s based on practical advantages that modern alternatives struggle to match:

Natural Structural Integrity: Wood’s cellular composition creates an inherently resilient material that absorbs shock and vibration during transport. This natural property means your products experience fewer damaging impacts, reducing the likelihood of costly damage claims and customer disappointment.

Unmatched Customisation Potential: Unlike standardised plastic or metal containers, wooden shipping crates can be precisely designed around your specific product dimensions and protection requirements. This eliminates wasted space, reduces shipping costs, and provides optimal protection for irregularly shaped items that standard containers can’t properly secure.

Exceptional Weight-to-Strength Ratio: Properly engineered wooden crates deliver remarkable protection relative to their weight. Our strategic design approach—reinforcing only where necessary and selecting appropriate timber species for specific applications—maximises protection while minimising shipping weight and associated freight costs.

Environmental Responsibility: In an age of growing environmental consciousness, wooden shipping crates represent a sustainable packaging choice. The timber in your crate actively stores carbon throughout its useful life, and when properly sourced, supports responsible forestry practices that maintain healthy forest ecosystems for future generations.
