How to choose your packaging
Boxes assembled along their folds without tools, for presenting cured hams and shoulders. Formats accommodate different piece sizes, with standard printing and customisation options; ask about the model’s plastic handle.
Measure the wrapped piece, including the hoof and protruding parts. State its weight, position in the box and whether accessories or an outer courier box are needed.
Product, dimensions and handling
- Dimensions: distinguish usable internal space from external dimensions.
- Contents: include bases, wrappers and dividers when calculating space.
- Handling: describe transport, stacking and storage conditions.
Explain how the piece will be wrapped and whether direct contact or grease on the cardboard is possible, so the material can be confirmed.
Customisation and printing
Ask about dimension and flexographic printing options. Send your logo or artwork and identify the panels you want printed. Text and graphic placement are agreed for the selected format.
Information needed for a quote
Provide quantity, required internal dimensions, contents and packed weight per box. Include printing artwork, destination and preferred date. If you already use packaging, share its dimensions and explain what you need to improve.
