What is Transit Packaging?

Transit packaging is designed to protect products while they move through transportation and distribution channels. It includes cartons, pallets, crates, stretch films, strapping, cushioning materials, and protective inserts. Transit packaging focuses on resistance to impact, vibration, compression, moisture, and handling. The appropriate packaging depends on transportation distance, mode, product fragility, and storage environment. It is especially important for industrial and e-commerce supply chains.
