Plan Filament Packaging for Storage, Freight and Shelf Handling

Use one published packing standard to estimate freight, plan warehouse handling and review how each spool is protected: vacuum bag, desiccant, individual box and 10 spools per export carton.

01 — Per-Spool Packing

Check How Each Spool Is Protected Before It Enters the Carton

Packing starts at the vacuum sealing station, not at the carton. Each 1kg spool is sealed in a transparent vacuum bag together with desiccant, then packed into its own box — so the filament leaves the line dry and stays protected through handling, sea freight and warehouse time.

  • Transparent vacuum bag with desiccant, sealed per spool.
  • Individual box per spool: 21.1 × 19.8 × 6.3 cm.
  • Vacuum sealing is a defined step of the production flow: raw material → pellet drying → extrusion → vacuum sealing → packing → finished goods.

02 — Carton Data

Export Carton Specifications

Published carton data, so container loading, air-freight thresholds and landed-cost models can be built without asking us first.

ParameterValue
Spools per carton10 × 1kg spools
Net weight10 kg
Gross weight≈13.1 kg
Carton dimensions34 × 22.5 × 41.6 cm

Planning reference: 1,000 spools = 100 cartons, net 1,000 kg, gross ≈1,310 kg, ≈3.18 CBM by published carton volume.

03 — Why It Matters

Packing Decisions That Show Up in Your Numbers

MOISTURE

Moisture Control

Moisture is one of the most common reasons end users complain about stringing and brittle filament. Vacuum sealing with desiccant keeps each spool dry from the line to the end user — fewer returns traced to storage and transit.

FREIGHT

Freight Planning

Published carton dimensions, gross weight and CBM let your forwarder calculate container loading and landed cost immediately — no back-and-forth before the first quote is even comparable.

RETAIL

Retail Readiness

The individual box is shelf-ready as shipped, and doubles as the canvas for OEM work — custom labels, color boxes, barcodes and manuals for private-label programs.

04 — OEM Packaging

Separate Product Approval from Custom Packaging Approval

OEM and ODM packaging is available alongside the standard packing: customized labels, color boxes, spools, barcodes, instruction manuals and other packaging materials. The reference MOQ for customized packaging is 1,000 spools per design — final requirements, costs and lead time are confirmed on a project-by-project basis.

  • Labels, color boxes, spools, barcodes and manuals.
  • Color matching from physical sample, Pantone or image.
  • Packaging components confirmed with their own minimums and lead times.

05 — Before You Ask

Packaging Questions, Answered Directly

How is each spool packed?
Each 1kg spool is vacuum-sealed with desiccant in a transparent bag and packed in an individual box measuring 21.1 × 19.8 × 6.3 cm. Vacuum sealing is a fixed step of the production flow before packing and finished-goods storage.
What is the export carton specification?
10 spools per carton: 34 × 22.5 × 41.6 cm, net 10 kg, gross ≈13.1 kg, 0.031824 CBM. Use these figures directly for container and landed-cost calculations.
Can packaging be customized for my brand?
Yes — customized labels, color boxes, spools, barcodes, instruction manuals and other packaging materials are available as OEM/ODM work. Reference MOQ is 1,000 spools per design, with final requirements, costs and lead time confirmed per project. See OEM & Private Label.
