Packing crate questions

What sizes of wooden packing crate can you make?

Almost any — every crate is made to order around your product’s dimensions and weight, from small component crates to large machinery cases. Send us the measurements and we’ll design around them.

Do you supply small quantities?

Yes. One crate for a single shipment is as welcome as a production run — and if you need regular supply, we can hold stock at our Devon site ready for call-off.

Are your crates suitable for export?

Yes — every crate can be ISPM15 heat treated and stamped in our on-site kilns, which is required for solid-wood packaging entering almost every country including the EU.

Can you supply the internal packaging too?

Yes — foam, corner protection, void fill and moisture control can all be supplied with the crate, so goods arrive packed and protected from a single supplier.
