Automotive Part Shipping That Keeps Your Production Moving
In the automotive industry, every minute counts. Unplanned downtime on the production line can cost thousands of dollars per minute, making reliable shipping and packing of automotive parts absolutely essential. At Express Packing, we specialize in automotive part shipping designed to keep your production moving without delays or damage.
Why Reliable Automotive Packaging Matters
From machined metal components to high-gloss plastic trim, each part in your production
process requires specialized handling. Damaged or late shipments can lead to:
• Production line stoppages
• Expedited shipping costs
• Reorders and additional labor
• Strained relationships with OEM partners
Investing in engineered packaging upfront ensures your parts arrive line-ready, protecting your profit margins, schedules, and long-term business relationships.
Tailored Packaging Solutions for Every Part
At Express Packing, every program starts with an engineer-led assessment. From there, we design fit-for-purpose packaging that balances protection, cost, and efficiency.
Some of our solutions include:
• Custom crates, pallets, and inserts for precise part fit and maximum cube efficiency
• Returnable or expendable options depending on shipping route and sustainability needs
• VCI and vacuum sealing to prevent corrosion on metal components
• Class-A protection protocols with EPE foams, spun-bond fabric, and Tyvek liners for scratch-free delivery of painted plastics and chrome trims
Plastics and Metals Require Different Approaches
Different materials need different protection:
Plastic Components
• Anti-static, lint-free wraps for electronics and interior parts
• Precision-molded inserts to support complex geometries
• Returnable totes with fabric dividers to prevent paint rub
Metal Components
• VCI films provide rust protection for ferrous metals
• Vacuum sealing with desiccants for long-haul shipments
• Reinforced pallets and brackets prevent shifting during transit
These methods minimize claims, rework, and delays by ensuring every part arrives ready for the assembly line.
Quality, Compliance, and Tracking You Can Trust
Consistency is key in automotive shipping. That’s why we implement:
• AIAG and MIL-STD labeling for part traceability and scan-ready barcodes
• Photo documentation from receipt to final load-out
