Guides
News & guides for packaging buyers
Notes from the export desk at LINGYI SANDA NEW MATERIAL — written for the people who have to choose a material, sign a specification and clear a container.
These four guides cover the questions we answer most often before a first order: which material suits which service condition, how a custom order actually runs from drawing to container, what to check before you pay a deposit, and how to pick takeaway sizes that keep your SKU count and your freight bill under control. Everything here is written from our own production and shipping experience — with the carton and capacity figures taken from our catalogue so you can check the arithmetic yourself.
