The convey-ability of the product is based upon having a reasonably evenly distributed weight. Items which may not convey reliably are those with the following characteristics: Uneven carton base soft cardboard or cartons with banding or strapping Open or improperly sealed containers Side or bottom which has concave or convex distortion Protrusions on the sides or bottom Uneven weight distribution or shifting centre of gravity Not rigid enough to maintain shape Cardboard & Filling Outer cartons must not be reused cartons but can be from recycled card. Outer cartons must be easy to open when required, without damaging contents and/or inner cartons, and allow easy removal of all units within Cartons must be capable of supporting a stack of similar product up to two metres high Cartons must not be under filled as this may cause crushing of contents Internal dividers must be used as necessary Approved by: Sarah Winslet Date: 19 Sept 13 Page 4

5 Cartons should provide protection and security for the contents whilst using the minimum amount of material necessary to achieve this. Only the following forms of fill material are acceptable:bubble Wrap and Air-Pac.
