From the overall perspective of logistics, using scientific methods to determine the optimal packaging.
1, the first factor affecting packaging is loading and unloading, different loading and unloading methods determine the packaging.
Currently, China's railroad transportation, especially car transportation, but also most of the manual loading and unloading, therefore, the shape and size of the package should be suitable for manual operation.
On the other hand, the loading and unloading personnel quality is low, the operation is not standardized also directly triggered by the loss of goods.
In a regular meeting, the general manager of a Guangzhou express company has talked about such a case: imported from Hong Kong customs clearance of a large wooden box, containing precision equipment, the requirements of the transportation can not be tilted. When the wooden box to the hands of the customer, the owner of the goods is sure that the goods have been tilted, because the wooden box on the packaging has a logo turned red - the original goods tilt 45 degrees, the logo on the packaging will change color. Therefore, the introduction of loading and unloading technology, improve the quality of loading and unloading personnel, standardize loading and unloading operation standards, etc. will accordingly promote the rationalization of packaging and logistics.
2, the second factor that has an impact on packaging is custody.
In determining the packaging, should be based on different conditions and ways of storage and the use of suitable packaging strength.
3, the packaging has an impact on the third factor is transportation.
The type of transportation tools, transport distance length, road conditions have an impact on packaging. At this stage in China, especially in Guangzhou, there are many different types of transportation: aviation direct flights and transit, railroad express container, parcel express, line package train, etc., car tarpaulin cars, sealed vans, the above different modes of transportation have different requirements and impact on packaging.
