Reusable for internal transfers
Compatible with racking and conveyor systems

Quick answer

Double wall boxes are essential for warehouse operations involving heavy goods, high stacking, and export shipments. They stack 5-8 high, supporting heavy inventory storage. Their durability allows reuse between warehouse locations. Standard dimensions integrate with racking and conveyors. For export, they survive the additional handling stages (loading, customs, unloading, onward delivery) that would damage single wall.

Pallet efficiency

Design box footprints to tessellate on 1200x1000mm or 1200x800mm pallets. Maximise layers within vehicle and container height limits. Double wall stacking strength enables more layers per pallet, reducing per-box freight cost.
