Heavy Duty Wood Shipping Crates

ISPM-15 is an international phytosanitary standard requiring wood packaging materials to be heat-treated, eliminating pests and pathogens before crossing international borders. Our heat-treated hardwood crates include full documentation and traceability, ensuring smooth customs clearance and preventing costly shipment delays, rejections, or fines during export to ISPM-15 member countries.

Standard Export Crates are built from kiln-dried pine, starting at $185 per unit, ideal for general international shipments. Heavy-Duty Custom Crates use heat-treated hardwood, starting at $420 per unit, and are engineered with reinforced bracing and cushioning for heavy, oversized, or high-value freight requiring maximum in-transit protection.

Our crates are built using kiln-dried pine for Standard Export Crates and heat-treated hardwood for Heavy-Duty Custom Crates. Both material options meet international phytosanitary standards and are selected for strength, moisture resistance, and durability, ensuring reliable protection for freight throughout handling, storage, and long-distance transit.

Yes, every crate is custom-built to your shipment's exact dimensions, weight, and handling requirements. Engineered bracing and cushioning are added for heavy, oversized, fragile, or irregularly shaped items, ensuring a secure, protective fit that minimizes movement and damage risk during transit, storage, or handling.
