Automotive Packaging

We make composite bulk bins designed for automotive parts, in three standard models that stack efficiently in shipping containers. They’re supplied flat-packed to save floor space until they’re needed. If the standard sizes don’t suit your parts, our design team can build bins to your own dimensions.

Yes. We make transit cartons sized to the part, so components are protected without paying to ship empty space. Cartons can be fitted with dividers and inserts to keep parts separated, and they’re made at our Derrimut and Dandenong South sites in Melbourne, so you can source cartons and pallets from one supplier.

Dunnage is the internal packaging that holds parts in place and keeps them apart inside a bin, carton or crate. We make corflute and cardboard dunnage systems shaped to your parts, so finished surfaces don’t rub, chip or scratch against each other in transit. Good dunnage is often the difference between a part arriving sellable or arriving as a claim.

Yes. Engines, gearboxes and other heavy single units travel in engineered crates built for their weight, with the part secured so it can’t move inside. Remanufacturers use them for outbound shipments and for sending cores back, so the same crate design works in both directions.

Machined and bare metal surfaces start corroding in humid air, so protection matters even on domestic runs. The main method is VCI bags, which seal the part in a vapour that stops oxidation without coating the surface. For long trips and sea freight, we add foil barriers and inhibitor systems matched to the journey.

Yes. All our export timber is heat treated, ISPM 15 compliant and individually stamped, and corrosion protection is sized to the sea leg. That way parts clear biosecurity at the destination and arrive in condition to sell or fit.

Yes. Returnable packaging is built to survive repeated trips between supplier and plant, rather than a single journey. It costs more upfront than one-way packaging, but in a closed-loop supply chain it pays for itself over the trips it makes. Tell us how your parts move and we’ll recommend whether returnable or one-way packaging makes more sense.

Yes. If you run more than one plant, we apply one specification across every site, so the packaging at one dock matches the next. Each plant is supplied from the CMTP site closest to it, which keeps the freight leg short and deliveries reliable.

Yes. We set up scheduled bin and packaging supply around your production, so packaging arrives when the line needs it rather than sitting on your floor. Because we make our packaging on our own equipment, lead times aren’t at the mercy of a third-party supplier.

Start by measuring the part properly. A measure-up and prototype show how much packaging the part actually needs, so you’re not paying for timber or cardboard that doesn’t protect anything. Flat-pack bins cut storage and freight costs, and bins that double as storage at the destination remove a handling step. Our aim is the cheapest packaging that never generates a claim.
