The Importance of Proper Packaging
Part of the joys of receiving parcels involves the happiness of gifting—that’s why proper packing plays a crucial role in ensuring safe and timely deliveries.
… because if the parcels arrive damaged, not only your customers sakit hati—you will too!
And if your customers become unhappy, it could lead to bad reviews, and loss in confidence in the brand.
Why suffer the consequences of poor packaging when you can control it from the start? Well-packed items help you avoid the common pitfalls of product damage, delays, and even loss during transit. In fact, it reflects your brand's professionalism and can make all the difference in making your customers love you more than your competitors.
3 Things to Note to Ensure Your Products Arrive Safely
Sturdy boxes are always the way to go—no one likes squished deliveries.
1. Select the ideal packaging for your products
To ensure your products arrive safely, it is essential to select the right packaging material and ensure it is durable enough to withstand the transit. For example, use sturdy carton boxes for fragile items. In addition, ensure your packaging is the right fit to avoid items bursting out or bouncing around.
2. Ensure all openings are properly sealed
Proper sealing is essential to prevent product spillage and protect your items from external elements during transit. Use minimal but effective sealing methods, ensuring all openings are securely fastened—but don’t use the whole gulung of masking tape for a small item please. This is especially important to guard against water or humidity damage, particularly in hot and humid climates like Malaysia. For added sustainability, we recommend using eco-friendly options like water-activated tape, which not only provides a strong seal but also reduces the environmental impact of your packaging.
Fragile parcels deserve a little extra love and care.
3. Use proper labeling
Clear and accurate labeling is crucial in guiding our abang-abang Pos Laju on how to handle your products and ensure they arrive safely. Labels should be easily readable, with the recipient’s and return address clearly displayed. For fragile or delicate items, don’t forget to include handling instructions like “Fragile” and “This Side Up.” Proper labeling helps minimise mishandling, reduces the risk of damage, and ensures that your package reaches its destination in the best possible condition.
