Factory packaging designed for transportation is the original manufacturer’s packaging intended for the safe handling and delivery of goods. It provides protection against impact, vibration, and compression, and is suitable for pushing, pulling, or handling with equipment.

If you are shipping a parcel weighing between 25-100 kg or with dimensions exceeding 290 meters, and the item is packed in original factory transport packaging, palletization is not required. Such a parcel must be suitable for handling by pushing, pulling, or using loading equipment. The packaging must be strong and free from damage.
Examples include washing machines, dishwashers, refrigerators, large-screen televisions, etc.
