Once you decide on a wooden case or crate what next?
Firstly do I need a Case or Crate?
What is a Case?
A six sided box with timber constructed so that there are no gaps in the six sides.
What is a Crate?
A six sided box with timber constructed so that there are gaps in the six sides.
How do I know what I want?
Does it need to be fully protected from the outside environment?
If YES you need a CASE.
if NO a CRATE will protect it sufficiently
The nature of your product will determine how we design the Case taking into consideration the working loads, weight distribution and where it is going. for example we add extrA structural strength when it is going to country QLD and WA due to losses our customers have previously experienced through incorrect loading and handling in these remote areas.
