4.1 - PACKAGING

The standard packaging, when supplied and unless otherwise agreed, is not proofed against rainfall and is
intended for shipping by ground and not sea, and for environments which are under cover and not humid.
The material can be stored in suitable conditions for a period of two years under cover at a temperature bet-
ween –15 °C and +50 °C at a relative humidity not in excess of 80%. Storage in all other conditions requires
specific packaging.
In order to facilitate handling, heavy packages can be loaded on pallets.
The most frequent types of packaging are shown in the figures below.
- Wooden crate for miscellaneous products shipped by sea.
- Carton pallet packaging for single products and kits.
