to protect the parts that are subject to
deterioration during transportation and storage
on site. In particular, the following precautions
should be taken:
1. The weld ends surface shall be protected
with suitable protective like Deoxaluminite.
The end shall be closed with plywood or
plastic disc fixed at the edge by strips.
2. The type of packing must be defined in the
Customer's Order and shall be appropriate
to ensure safe transportation to final
destination and eventual conservation
before installation.

carried out in the lifting points and at the center
of gravity position which have been marked. The
transportation of all packed material must be
carried out safely and following the local safety
regulations.

clean and dry storage room.
2. The disc must be in the closed position,
and the end faces must be protected with
plastic or wooden discs fixed with straps. If
possible, keep the original protection.
3. Periodical checks have to be carried out
in the storage area to verify that the above
mentioned conditions are maintained.

Do not expose consignment packages to the
weather or directly to the sun.
Check the packaging every two months.
