Mills Packaging

Industrial, Export & Protective Cargo Packaging

Export-grade crating and protective packing built around your cargo's weight, route and rules, so machinery and high-value goods arrive undamaged and pass inspection.

What Mills Packaging Does

The Mills Packaging provides export and project-cargo crating for machinery, heavy equipment, fragile and high-value goods, using cargo-specific wooden cases, skids, pallets, blocking, bracing, securing, moisture protection and International Standards for Phytosanitary Measures (ISPM) 15-compliant treated wood where required. Each packing method is matched to the cargo dimensions, weight, lifting points, transport mode, route conditions, storage period and final handling requirements.

Where clients usually get stuck

  • Packing chosen after the quoteCrating is treated as an afterthought, then falls short on weight, lifting points or route conditions.
  • Damage in transitFragile and high-value cargo moves with inadequate blocking, bracing or moisture protection.
  • Packing rules missedTreated-wood and packing requirements can hold cargo up when they are not planned for.

Lashing and Securing

Container Stuffing and Unpacking

We plan cargo placement, load distribution and securing, with documented handling, so containers are loaded safely and unloaded without incident.

06

Moisture and Corrosion Protection

We coordinate barriers, desiccants, wrapping and vapor protection, so rust and moisture damage are prevented.

Vacuum and Protective Wrapping

We protect sensitive equipment from dust, moisture, corrosion and handling, so it arrives ready to use.

We arrange qualified packaging and markings based on confirmed classification and mode, so carriers accept the cargo.

Common Questions

Answers before you have to ask.

Export packaging is designed for the physical and environmental conditions of international movement, including repeated handling, stacking, vibration, moisture, storage and inspection.

No. The method depends on the machine, sensitivity, weight, lifting points, route and handling plan. Options may include skids, crates, barriers, wraps, blocking, bracing or container securing.

International movements may require compliant wood-packaging treatment and marks depending on the material, destination and applicable phytosanitary standard. This must be confirmed before fabrication.
