What Is Industrial Crating?
Industrial crating uses custom wooden shipping crates to safely package and transport equipment, machinery, and high-value assets worldwide. TransPak goes beyond basic crating by serving as a single point of contact for packaging, logistics, rigging, climate-controlled warehousing, and more. Across our 80+ global locations, customers benefit from consistent materials, ISO-certified workmanship, shared BOMs and drawings, and reliable design and engineering capabilities.
Sustainability is a priority: we source lumber and plywood from responsible manufacturers and follow an aggressive recycling program to reduce waste.
Materials We Use in Crating
Custom crate solutions begin with your specifications. From lightweight crates for sensitive assets to heavy-duty designs for industrial equipment, we select materials that balance protection, cost, and sustainability. TransPak works closely with your team to ensure each crate meets your performance and shipping requirements while supporting responsible sourcing and eco-friendly practices.
Hardwood
Plywood
Metal
Foam
We have in-house conversion capabilities that allow us to equip our crates with foam where needed. Foam helps to ensure optimal shock absorption for a safe and smooth delivery for even the most fragile assets.
Plastic
Protective Layers
After constructing your custom crate, we follow an aggressive recycling program – we can grind and recycle scrap wood into fireplace logs or press board, and compress scrap foam into bales or convert it into carpet padding. Alternatively, scrap foam can be returned to the foam manufacturers for use in recycled products.
