Know what proper packing means for your shipment — before you ship.
An engineering-grade packaging report for exporters. Describe your shipment, upload photos, and get a full advisory — cargo profile, risk assessment, packaging spec, applicable regulations, cargo- insurance rating, monitoring recommendations, and an executive summary — before you ship. For high-value cargo, dangerous goods, or unusual routes, we still route you to a certified packer or surveyor for the final word.
Not a compliance certifier. Not a substitute for a licensed surveyor. Guidance only.
Cargo profile, packaging spec, regulations and insurance rating covered.
Two weak points flagged — see improvements before booking cover.
Each with why it applies to this lane and cargo.
Six steps to a full packaging report
Describe your shipment
Product, mode, weight and dimensions, declared value, origin and destination, ship date.
Upload photos
Multiple angles of the packed goods. Kept private and timestamped as documentation.
We look up the rules
Category × transport mode × route → the outer and inner packing your lane expects.
We factor climate
Humidity, temperature range and transit duration for that lane and month.
The advisor synthesises a full report
Cargo profile, risk assessment, packaging materials, dimensions, regulations, cargo-insurance rating, monitoring devices, sustainability options, and an executive summary.
Saved for claims
Photo + advisor report saved as timestamped claim-support documentation you can retrieve later.
An 11-section engineering-grade packaging report
Every section is customised to your product, mode, route, transit duration and climate. When intake fields are missing, the advisor states its assumptions instead of refusing — and drops its confidence score so you know when to push for a professional review.
Cargo profile
How your product classifies — fragility, moisture/temperature sensitivity, DG status, theft attractiveness.
Risk assessment
Every real handling, climate, and route risk for your lane, rated low / medium / high.
Packaging recommendation
Primary, secondary, protective materials, outer options, palletization, and accessories — each with rationale.
Temperature protection
Transport temperature, acceptable range, refrigeration method and protection duration — when applicable.
Dimensions & weights
Package and pallet dimensions, gross/net/volumetric weight, container utilization.
Applicable regulations
ISPM-15, IATA DGR, IMDG, ADR, HACCP, FDA, ISO 780, phytosanitary, country-specific — with why each applies.
Cargo insurance rating
Excellent to unsuitable, plus claim scenarios, weak points, improvements, and a 0–100 protection + risk score.
Monitoring devices
GPS, temperature, humidity, shock or tilt indicators — only what actually matters for this cargo.
Sustainability
Greener alternatives that don't compromise protection.
Packaging diagram
Layered ASCII sketch from outer package down to the product.
Executive summary
One-line suitability verdict + confidence score (1–10) + pre-shipment recommendations.
