Thermoformed Shipping Trays

Shipping Dunnage Trays

By definition, dunnage means to keep contents in place. What comes to mind is the "I Love Lucy" epsiode in which Lucy and Ethel were on the assembly line for chocolates. A dunnage tray was needed to keep the candies in place. Fill a dunnage tray and stack it for shipping. In this way, the dunnage tray is also a shipping tray. Whether you need one or both, here are some benefits and candidates to consider for your application.

Benefits of Thermoformed Shipping Trays:

• Superior product protection
• Weight management
• Reusability (especially when transported between facilities that are relatively close in geography)
• Simplicity of packing
• Exact counts of parts per pack
• Thermoformed part density

Any product that meets all or most of these characteristics is a candidate for thermoformed shipping trays:

• Sensitive or delicate parts
• Higher dollar values
• Small to medium size and weight
• Strict assembly conditions
• Customers that require precise counts of parts per package
• Parts that have higher levels of cleanliness specifications

The shipping of hi-speed fuel rails and fuel tube assemblies are examples of products successfully using our thermoformed shipping trays. Additionally, markets that would benefit from our shipping or dunnage trays include electronics, bearings, high-end filtration products and spark plugs, to name a few.
