Wooden Crates for Research Equipment
Businesses in the research sector often own high-value, sensitive equipment that requires protection during transportation and storage. These heavy, irregularly shaped instruments demand tailored packaging. At Vol Case & Container, we design large-scale, custom wooden crates that perfectly fit your research equipment. We can simplify your shipping and storage requirements with sturdy, custom options to give you peace of mind.
Large Scale Wood Crating for Lab Equipment
Large-scale wood crating is a specialized solution designed to protect large, heavy, high-value equipment during transportation and storage. With a capacity of over 70,000 pounds, our crates are ideal for items that are too bulky or heavy for standard packaging solutions.
All our crates are stamped and certified per ISPM-15 standards. This certification means we heat treat the wood to maintain structural integrity, while the stamp complies with international shipping requirements.
We also provide:
