Packaging Supplies Company''s boxes are "200 lb burst test" certified. (We do carry some "275lb burst test" certified boxes too.) This means that the corrugated walls of the box would require 200 pounds per square inch of force to break through the wall of the box. The burst test has been a standard certification for years. More recently a new certification test has started to be used called the Edge Crush Test (ECT). Generally, 200lb test boxes are 32 ECT. ECT is the edgewise-compressive strength, parallel to the flutes of a short column of corrugated fibreboard. Test results are reported as the pounds per inch required causing compression failure. ECT relates directly to box compression strength which is important in today''s world of box stacking. For certain items, mailing supplies provide a complete protective package fiberglass that is ready to ship. Save time, labor, packaging and shipping costs by using mailing supplies. Packaging Supplies Company offers the following styles of mailing supplies:

Packaging Tips Select a box that is strong enough to protect the contents. Leave space for cushioning tape inside the carton. Cushion package contents with shredded or rolled newspaper, bubble wrap, or Styrofoam peanuts. Plain air-popped popcorn is also good for cushioning; it''s inexpensive and environmentally friendly. Pack tightly to avoid shifting. Always use tape that is designed for shipping, such as pressure-sensitive tape, nylon-reinforced kraft paper tape, or glass-reinforced pressure-sensitive tape. Do not use wrapping fiberglass paper, string, masking tape, or cellophane tape. Put the delivery and return addresses on one side only of tape the package. Suggestion: Place a return address fiberglass label inside the package. Stuff glass and fragile hollow items, like vases, with newspaper or packing material to avoid damage due to shock. When mailing framed photographs, take the glass out of the frame and wrap it separately. Remove batteries from toys. Wrap and place them next to the toys in the mailing box. Take packages that tape weigh fiberglass at least 1 pound into the post office for mailing. Publication 2, Packaging for Mailing, and Publication 227, Preparing Packages for Mailing, contain more tips and are available free from your post office. Obtain Express Mail and Priority Mail boxes, envelopes, and tubesPurchase packaging products, tape including tape, envelopes, padded bags, boxes, mailing tubes, and cushioning fiberglass material, from your post office. Some locations offer decorative boxes and expander packs that are suitable for mailing gifts. Length divided by height is less than 1.3 or tape more than 2.5 inches. A surcharge, fiberglass in addition to the applicable tape postage and fees, is applied to each piece of nonstandard size mail for two reasons: it compensates the Postal Service for the added cost of manually handling nonstandard mail, and it promotes fiberglass the design and use of mail that can tape be processed mechanically.
