brittle materials and any article made from them is vulnerable to suffer damage
during handling and transporting. An effectively safe package can maintain the
integrity of these fragile items and ensure that they reach the destination
without a scratch or crack!
Follow the steps below and
ensure a safe transit –
- Wrap individual glass items in newspapers and
secure with tape. This effectively prevents chipping of the edges.
- Have the package box padded with bubble wrap or use an old t-shirt to provide a soft cover for the delicate s.
- Place adequate items in a single box. Too many would risk over cramping that may cause breakage while too less articles in the box will cause the goods to move about, threatening breaking.

lids and do label the box “FRAGILE”.
