Packaging & Labeling
The wrong packaging leads to damaged goods, rejected shipments, and insurance claims. Incorrect labels stop your cargo at borders, delay customs clearance, and can result in market access denial. We provide export-grade packaging for project cargo and oversized shipments, with labeling that aligns with your shipping documentation. Tailored solutions for fragile industries — glass, electronics, and cosmetics.

What is Export Packaging?
Export packaging is specialized packaging designed to protect goods during international shipping. Unlike domestic packaging, export packaging must withstand ocean freight conditions, multiple handling cycles, and comply with international regulations like ISPM-15 for wood materials.
For businesses shipping goods internationally, proper export packaging is essential to prevent damage claims, customs delays, and rejected shipments. The process involves assessing cargo characteristics, selecting appropriate materials, and applying compliant labeling.
LANGINO LOGISTICS provides full-service packaging and labeling integrated with our transport solutions. This means your packaging is designed for the specific journey, labels match customs declarations, and timing aligns with your shipping schedule.
What Should You Consider for Export Packaging?
ISPM-15 Compliance
All wood packaging materials for international shipping must be heat-treated and stamped according to ISPM-15. Non-compliant shipments are rejected at borders, quarantined, or have wood destroyed.
Moisture Protection
Ocean containers experience temperature swings causing condensation. VCI bags, desiccants, and moisture barriers protect metal parts and sensitive goods from corrosion damage.
Impact Resistance
International freight involves multiple handling cycles. Packaging must be designed for actual transport conditions, not just product weight - including full container stacking loads.
Labeling Requirements
Labels must comply with both origin and destination country requirements. Hazmat placards, handling marks, barcodes, and origin labels all have specific standards.
Documentation
Export packaging requires complete records: packing lists, weight certificates, ISPM-15 verification, and photos for customs and insurance purposes.

FAQ
ISPM-15 is the International Standard for Phytosanitary Measures requiring wood packaging materials (pallets, crates, dunnage) to be heat-treated or fumigated to prevent pest spread. Most countries enforce this - non-compliant shipments are rejected at the border. We use only ISPM-15 stamped materials.
