1️⃣ Introduction

When you source aluminium windows from a trusted manufacturer like Openhaus, packaging may be the difference between a flawless delivery and costly damage.
At our factory we’ve spent ten years perfecting not only production quality but also export-ready packaging that helps your shipment arrive safely.
In this guide we’ll walk you through how we package aluminium windows, how we protect against common transport damage, and how you as the buyer benefit from our packaging process.

2️⃣ Why Export Packaging Matters for Aluminium Windows

Aluminium windows contain large frames, glass panels, hardware and may travel thousands of kilometres across land and sea.

Even high-quality products can be damaged in transit if packaging is inadequate—scratches, frame distortion, broken glass, or water ingress are all common.

Good packaging is therefore not a luxury—it is an essential part of product quality for export aluminium windows.

3️⃣The Packaging Process at Openhaus — Step by Step

3.1 Pre-packing inspection and cleaning

Before any unit is packed, we inspect the aluminium window frame, glass, and hardware at our factory.

We remove dust, fingerprints, moisture and confirm dimensions so the product goes into packaging in perfect condition.

This ensures that any damage can be attributed to transit rather than manufacturing.

3.2 Multi-layer protection

We wrap frames in shock-absorbing film and then bubble wrap the glass panels; corners get special edge protectors.

For example, we use expandable polyethylene foam around aluminium frames to prevent scratches or dents during handling.

Glass panels also receive an inner protective layer to guard against moisture, impact and vibration.

3.3 Crating and palletisation

After wrapping, we place each unit into a solid carton or treated wooden crate depending on destination and shipment mode.

Where sea-shipping is involved, crates are palletised, strapped securely, and blocked to avoid movement in transit.

We also mark each package clearly with size, unit number, handling instructions and project code to ensure correct unloading.

3.4 Moisture and environmental protection

Because our export shipments may travel through humid, rainy or salt-air zones, we include desiccant packets and sealed film wrapping.

Wooden crates are treated for export compliance, and we ensure no direct contact of aluminium with untreated timber to avoid corrosion.

By guarding against moisture and salt conditions, the window units arrive installed-ready rather than requiring onsite repair.

3.5 Loading and transport loading

When loading containers, we ensure heavier units are placed low, fragile units on top, and cargo is braced to avoid tipping or pressure damage.

Straps, blocking, corner blocks and floor pads help maintain stability during sea-voyage, rail or road movement.

Openhaus also provides photos of loaded containers so you can verify packaging status ahead of shipping.

4️⃣ What You as a Buyer Should Confirm

• Ask the supplier (Openhaus) what packaging layers they use: film wrap, foam protection, carton/wooden crate.

• Confirm whether the wooden crates meet export treatment standards (e.g., ISPM15) and are suitable for sea transport.

• Inspect photos or videos of actual packaging, labelling, palletisation and crating before goods leave factory.

• Agree on documentation: packing list, container loading list, unit numbers and handling instructions.

• Clarify how the goods will be secured inside the container: straps, blocking, pallet floor, stacking height.

• Ask about transit time, climate exposure, humidity control and if desiccants or sealed packing will be used.

• By focusing on these items you reduce risk of damage and get better value from your aluminium windows.

5️⃣ Why Trust Openhaus for Your Export Packaging
