Wooden Slatted Crates: The Cost-Effective Alternative to Solid Wooden Crates
Wooden slatted crates are primarily used for transporting large industrial goods or oversized machinery and equipment. Each slatted crate can be custom-built and used in combination with shrink wrap packaging or overseas packaging for additional protection – while keeping overall packaging costs low compared to fully enclosed wooden boxes.
Compared to traditional enclosed wooden boxes, slatted crates are simpler, use less material, are cheaper to manufacture, and reduce overall transport weight. They also generate less packaging waste at the destination, as there is less material to dispose of.
When full enclosure is not required, slatted crates provide a lightweight and economical packaging solution.
Advantages of Wooden Slatted Crates:
- Cost-effective and lightweight – lower packaging costs and reduced shipping weight.
- Durable and secure – custom-built design for additional protection during transport and storage.
- Compatible with shrink wrap – for extra protection against moisture, dust, and other external factors.
- Flexible and adaptable – custom-made in any required dimensions and configurations.
Tailored Slatted Crates for Maximum Safety
Slatted wooden crates are a smart and practical choice for modern industrial packaging. All of our crates are custom-engineered and can be equipped with additional protective features such as shrink wrap, VCI films for corrosion protection, or custom 3D inserts and padding – ensuring maximum safety and product protection.
