Guide: How to pack your wine bottles for shipping?

When a company decides to deliver bottles, it must provide impeccable shipping. Secure bottle transport is essential to offer excellent service by minimizing losses and breakage. Through the shipping of your bottles, you put your company's image and reliability at stake, so it is important for you to select the right shipping box as well as the right cushioning accessories.

  

Choosing the right shipping box

  

Bottles are probably one of the most difficult products to ship. During transport, boxes are jostled and mishandled. The protection and safety of bottles is therefore paramount, and this begins with choosing the right shipping box.

 

Options to consider

 

With Cav’Service, you have a choice of different shipping box options to best adapt to your specific needs and expectations.

• Wine transport : Barcelona boxes are the perfect containers for safely transporting bottles. Whether it's an outer carton only, with a sleeve, or a gift box, the choice is yours. The sleeve holds the bottle in place during shipping and prevents impacts between glass containers. These boxes and sleeves are available for 1, 2, 3, 6 or 12 x 75 cl bottles, and also in magnum format;
• Beer transport : with our Amsterdam and Brussels collections, transport cans and bottles up to 33cl. While the 12-bottle Amsterdam box is a simple, yet secure, handling box, the Brussels box is a shipping box available for 6, 12, or 24 beers to hold them in place during transport thanks to individual compartments.

Selecting the perfect cushioning accessory

  

Because a simple box is not enough to protect your bottles during transport, Cav’Service has effective protection solutions. From void fill to Wineskin or bubble wrap, you have a choice to safely send your bottles.

  

Void fill

  

Void fill is perfect for the safety of your bottles. Simply fill your box with void fill before placing the bottles inside. Small accordions or thin strips that offer optimal protection for your bottles.

At Cav’Service, our void fill is made of wood, synthetic material, or paper with Sizzlepack. The paper format comes in about ten colors to enhance your shipments.

  

  

The Wineskin

   

The Wineskin is your bottles' second skin. A plastic bubble wrap that molds to the shape of your bottle for optimal protection. You just have to slide the bottle inside the Wineskin (one Wineskin per bottle) before putting it in your shipping box.

In addition to protecting your bottle, its shape and adhesive closure also protect the rest of the box in case of breakage. Indeed, the liquid contained in the bottle will remain inside the Wineskin to preserve the integrity of the rest of the package throughout transport.

  

  

Papperbulle and bubble wrap

  

Finally, bubble wrap or Papperbulle will surely please you.

Plastic bubble wrap effectively protects your bottle(s). Each product individually wrapped in bubble wrap will be safe in its box during package transport.

Papperbulle is the most secure paper for your bottles. An ecological alternative that will surprise you as it is as effective as its plastic version. An option to consider if you want to reduce your environmental impact with your company. An obvious option also if your customers are sensitive to this issue.

   

  

As you can see, at Cav’Service, we have a wide selection of shipping products, because we want every business to find the right box for seamless deliveries. It's up to you to select the most relevant options for your business and your customers.
