Hybrid Crates
Custom hybrid shipping crates combining wood, corrugated, and foam to reduce weight, lower shipping costs, and maximize product protection.
Detailed Description
Lovepac’s Hybrid Crates are engineered to provide a lighter, stronger, and more sustainable alternative to traditional wooden crates. By combining wood, corrugated board, and protective foam into a single custom-designed solution, they deliver outstanding product protection while significantly reducing weight—making them the ideal choice for air freight and other demanding shipping applications.
Unlike conventional wooden crates, Hybrid Crates replace up to five of the six wooden panels with durable corrugated board—and in some applications, all six panels—creating a packaging solution that can be more than 80% recyclable while maintaining the strength required to protect valuable products.
Every Hybrid Crate is custom manufactured to match your product dimensions, handling requirements, and transportation conditions. The result is a lighter, more efficient packaging solution that reduces shipping costs, simplifies handling, and supports your sustainability goals without compromising protection.
