A leading courier company has launched a new international service for the exporters of textile, automotive, high technology, sports and surgical equipment.
According to a press release issued here on Wednesday, DHL launched, "The Express Pallet" - a packaging and transport solution specifically designed to match the customer's real time distribution systems as well as packaging configuration that provides durability, as well as convenience, all in one box.
The Express Pallet box has been designed in accordance with world-class packaging standards, in consultation with various industries on their stringent requirements and diverse transport needs, having Pakistani exporters in mind.
The exporters who used the service said that the new packaging and transport solution would benefit exporters, in general, and the textile and fashion industry, in particular, as it caters to heavyweight shipments.
DHL envisions higher export volumes from Pakistan with the forthcoming entry into the fold of WTO countries. Made of sturdy reinforced cardboard material, the Express Pallet has perforated slides that can be folded to create compartments that fit shipment volumes weighing 50kg, 75kg, and 100kg. Each box is built to withstand 300kg. This weather-resistant box is also palletised to allow for easier handling by forklift.
It presents customers with a tangible product that clearly shows DHL's resolve to meet customers needs in the heavyweight bracket.
