Export packaging
Export packaging protects goods during complex international transport. It must endure varying climates, multiple handling stages, and comply with global shipping standards.
Shock and vibration protection
All sensitive products need the right protection against shock and vibration. Nefab offers solutions which reduce shocks and vibrations, separate products and hold them in place.
Expendable packaging
Expendable packaging is a one-way solution optimized for the customer's supply chain with a focus on product protection and easy reuse or recycling at the final destination.
