As Alorwood Forest Products, we produce wooden crates in standard sizes as well as crates in special sizes. In this type of work, our company, with years of experience, selects and produces the right design and ensures the maximum efficiency of custom-size crates.
Custom Size Wooden Export Crates
Wooden export crates and cages can be manufactured in custom sizes according to customer requirements and are generally used for the transportation and shipment of closed and single-piece materials. The advantages of this type of packaging product are as follows:
- Wooden export crates are 40% cheaper than closed crates.
- Crates can be strengthened and shaped according to the weight or volume of the material or load to be transported.
- Wooden export crates have 80% of the carrying capacity of closed crates.
- Because they have gaps, crates in this crate structure are permeable to air and water, so it should be taken into account that the material to be transported will not be exposed to these effects or that its contents will be packaged and protected from external factors.
Wooden export crests are available in all sizes and ensure easy handling and reduce the damage during shipment, loading, and storage of sensitive materials. This type of packaging can also be used to minimize damage during the transportation of fragile and sensitive products such as machinery and electronic products.
Wooden export crests can be custom-made according to the product and are protected against corrosion, moisture, and rust by VCI packaging. They stabilize the products they carry and minimize shaking.
These crates have the ISPM15 heat treatment seal, so they pass Customs and can be reused. Wooden export crates are very useful as they enable higher stacking with ease and safety.
Custom Size Wooden Foldable Crates
Wooden foldable crates are manufactured from products that do not corrode and do not produce moisture (such as wood, plywood, and galvanized sheet metal), making them suitable for repeated use. A single layer height of these packaging products has 19.5 cm and can be stacked on top of each other to achieve the desired height.
The wood and sheet materials used in the production of wooden foldable crates do not produce moisture and are resistant to water. Wood moisture rate is 18% and thickness is 20 mm. Wooden foldable crates provide advantages in storage and transportation processes with their foldable feature and they are also recyclable. These packaging products also meet the ISPM15 standard and are economical. It can be used for loading two pallets on top of each other and double deck loading.
Plywood Crates
Plywood crates are lightweight wooden packages that can be produced in any desired size according to customer demands. The most important advantage of these crates over other wooden crates is their light weight. In this way, it provides convenience in the transportation and storage stages.
Important Advantages:
- Plywood crates are easy to assemble and can be produced in any size. In this way, it is a safe option for those who will do the assembly.
- The absence of nails in the plywood crates and the use of galvanized steel profiles, hinges, and hooks provide advantages in terms of strength and durability. The integrated locking system with hook and hinge makes packing and unpacking easy.
- Plywood crates provide high protection against difficult transportation conditions and long storage periods.
- These crates can also be used as a dangerous goods certified packaging solution.
- Plywood materials are not required to comply with ISPM15 standards.
OSB Crates
OSB (Oriented Strand Board) is moisture and impact-resistant wood material. Especially in America and Canada, OSB is used as a roofing material due to its flexible structure and decorative appearance. OSB is produced in the form of 122 x 183 cm standard timber and is superior in quality and strength to other timbers. The reason for this superiority is that OSB is produced in special facilities, in an electronically humidity-controlled environment, and self-controlled machines.
OSB is very resistant to water and moisture and can be used almost anywhere wood can be substituted. OSB is made by gluing wood chips and sawdust along its length and each layer is staggered so that it is suitable for nailing. OSB is easy to handle and transport improves building safety and is decorative, making it suitable for floor and ceiling cladding. They are resistant to moisture, insects, and mold.
OSB consists of 4 world-class grades: OSB-1, OSB-2, OSB-3, and OSB-4. The higher the number, the higher the quality of the OSB, and this numbering also indicate the purposes for which the OSB can be used.
- OSB-1 is widely used in the manufacturing of materials such as crates, boxes, and pallets in the packaging industry.
- OSB-2 is preferred as interior wall partition material and flooring in building construction.
- OSB-3 is used as a roofing board in buildings because it is resistant to water and moisture.
- OSB-4 is the highest quality OSB and is used in construction projects where it needs to be designed to carry high loads.
OSB can also be painted in various colors and used as a coating material. The most important features of OSB are its water and moisture resistance, flexible structure, and decorative appearance. Due to these features, it is used in construction projects for different purposes such as roofing board, wall partition material, and flooring. OSB can also be used in the production of materials such as crates, boxes, and pallets in the packaging industry.
