How to Reduce the Destructive Rate of Glassware During International Transportation

Glass products belong to the fragile category. To adapt to various cross-border logistics modes such as ocean shipping, air transportation, and land transportation, the export-oriented factories customize specialized export protection packaging for single-layer high borosilicate glass cups. Each water cup is wrapped with pearl cotton for shock absorption and packaged in an independent colored box to prevent direct friction and collision between products. Protective pads are added to vulnerable positions such as the cup mouth and bottom to enhance the impact resistance and resist the bumps and squeezes during transportation.

For bulk goods, they are encapsulated in thick five-layer reinforced corrugated export cartons. Standardized packing specifications are adopted, and fixed positioning cards are set inside the boxes to prevent the goods from shifting and colliding within the boxes. In response to the humid and salt spray erosion environment during ocean shipping, waterproof and moisture-proof stretch films are wound around the cartons, and waterproof packing straps are also used for reinforcement to prevent the cartons from getting damp, softening, deforming or breaking. During the storage and loading stage, the stacking height is strictly controlled, and a load-bearing layer-by-layer stacking mode is adopted to avoid cup body cracking caused by heavy pressure and squeezing.

The export enterprises have established a complete logistics traceability system, which records the entire process data of goods storage, loading, customs declaration, transportation, and unloading in real time. This makes it convenient for overseas buyers to track the logistics information. Currently, the well-established cross-border packaging solutions can control the glass cup transportation damage rate within 0.5%, significantly reducing the loss costs of export merchants. The reliable logistics protection system enables single-layer borosilicate glass cups to smoothly circulate in major global trade markets.
