How We Pack Your Parts

Every packing method is chosen based on part geometry, surface finish requirements, and transit distance. Parts with critical surfaces are individually wrapped before being placed in a tray. We do not throw machined parts loose into a box.

CNC machined stainless steel valve bodies packed in individual blister tray cells — EKINSUN export packaging

STAINLESS VALVE BODIES · BLISTER TRAY · EACH CELL SEPARATE · THREAD FACES PROTECTED

Precision brass CNC parts packed in foam insert tray for international export — EKINSUN Guangdong

BRASS PRECISION PARTS · FOAM INSERT TRAY · NO PART-TO-PART CONTACT

Brass fittings individually packed in blister cells for international shipping — EKINSUN factory

BRASS FITTINGS · INDIVIDUAL BLISTER CELLS · READY FOR DHL EXPORT

Anodized aluminum plate packed on foam insert to protect surface finish — EKINSUN packaging

ANODIZED ALUMINUM PLATE · FOAM SURFACE PROTECTION · FINISH PRESERVED IN TRANSIT

Why does packaging matter? A precision part machined to ±0.01mm can be scratched, dented, or have its thread damaged by poor packaging. Our packing method is part of the quality process — not an afterthought.

STANDARD PACKING INCLUDES

  • Individual VCI wrap or plastic bag per part
  • Blister tray or foam insert for multiple parts
