IN-HOUSE CUSTOM PACKAGING DESIGN
Custom Packaging Design for Your Valuable Assets
Craters & Freighters in Illinois, serving all of the Chicagoland Metropolitan Area and Northwest Indiana, is a custom packaging company with quality workmanship, shipping expertise, and superior materials to provide you with everything you need for your most difficult shipping challenges.
Product-specific packaging is one of our specialties. Our decades of experience have equipped us to meet even the most challenging shipping needs, regardless of size, shape, weight, or fragility.
We avoid one-size-fits-all approaches because we know that when it comes to shipping unique valuables, it requires a specialized approach. Our priority is your assets and getting them safely where you’d like them, whether that location is domestic or international.
We know the shipping stream can be unpredictable, so we take care to plan for everything and use specialized packing to get your valuables to their destination damage-free.
Our custom packaging design solutions include:
Vapor Barrier Packaging – When certain items, such as those with bare metal surfaces, electronics, and IT equipment travel by ocean container, moisture barriers need to be in place to protect them from damage.
Heat Shrink Wrapping – Our heat shrink-wrap protects items needing short or long-term storage from dust, weather, dirt, or moisture. The temporary barrier leaves no damage when removed and is useful in covering a variety of shapes and sizes.
Corrugated Containers – Custom corrugated containers provide lightweight durability and are a good choice for items that don’t require wood crates. These boxes and containers can also be customized for domestic shipping according to your needs.
Anti-Static (ESD) – Anti-static packaging is critical when shipping electrically sensitive items to prevent damaging the equipment. We offer wraps, barriers, and cushioning designed to prevent electrostatic discharges and their devastating effects.
Hard Shell Cases – Fragile pieces often need an extra layer of protection in shipping and these specialized hard shell cases, along with cushioning, offer exceptional protection.
Specialized Cushioning – Cushioning will change depending on the unique item being transported in potentially harsh shipping conditions. Foams, braces, and other cushioning are customized per order and backed by our decades of logistical knowledge and expertise.
Your trust is important to us, so we work hard to find the best solution for your shipping needs. We’ve learned through the last thirty years what works within the sometimes hostile shipping stream and we are confident we can protect your assets with our custom crates, boxes, shipping containers, and custom packaging design.
Customer Satisfaction is Our Priority
Our first priority is you. Ensuring your valuables are taken care of through the unpredictable nature of shipping is why we put so much attention to detail into providing the custom shipping packaging you need. We take into consideration the full scope of the assets you are packaging and shipping.
These details help us determine what packaging design to use to best protect your valuables. We go above and beyond to protect your assets like they were our own – our reputation depends on it.
