How should print collateral be packed for travel?
Summary
Use sleeves, rigid containers, and bubble wrap.
To ensure your print collateral remains intact during travel, use protective sleeves and rigid containers. Organize the materials by type and size, and consider using bubble wrap for added protection.
Protective sleeves help prevent scratches and bends, maintaining the quality of your print materials. Rigid containers offer a sturdy barrier against external pressure, reducing the risk of damage. Organizing by type and size not only makes it easier to find specific items but also optimizes space within your travel packaging. Bubble wrap adds an extra layer of cushioning, absorbing shocks during transit. It’s important to label your containers clearly to facilitate easy identification and handling. Consider the weight distribution within your packaging to prevent any imbalance that could lead to damage. If possible, keep the print collateral in a carry-on to minimize handling by others. Always check the airline’s guidelines for carrying such items to avoid any last-minute issues.
