Our Mission

We understand that your cargo isn't just cargo; it's your livelihood, your reputation, and your customers' experience. That's why we go beyond simply building a box. Whether you need heat-treated shipping crates to meet regulatory standards, waterproof containers, or custom box interior designs, we have the expertise to bring your vision to life.

Our Approach

Our approach is unique. We start by analyzing your product's journey–from the factory floor to your customer's doorstep. This includes studying everything from traffic patterns and bridge clearances to ensuring the safe passage of specialty items like entire houses. Our products are also designed to meet federal and military specifications.


We utilize cutting-edge CAD systems to transform your ideas into reality, often suggesting solutions that exceed your expectations. But technology is just the beginning. We carefully select materials like waterproof lining, foam, and felt, strategically placed to provide maximum protection during transit.
