At Charles Kendall Packing, we operate two state-of-the-art facilities in the UK. Our headquarters are strategically located in Feltham, just a few miles from Heathrow Airport, and our second facility is based in Southampton. These prime locations enable us to efficiently export your packed cases via air, sea, or road.
Our packaging solutions are meticulously designed to ensure the safety and security of your items during transit. Whether you're shipping by air, ocean, or road, we've got you covered. If you're unsure about your packaging needs, our team can visit your premises to discuss your specific requirements and even pack on-site. We use heat-treated timber that complies with ISPM15 standards, essential for exporting to the European Union and many other countries worldwide.
We recognize that your needs may evolve, and we're here to support you every step of the way. From urgent, small-scale exports to larger, more complex shipments for the MOD or aerospace sectors, we understand the intricacies involved.
Our packing service is tailored to meet your unique needs. Each wooden case is custom-made and expertly crafted to suit your shipment. While we prioritize safety above all, we're always available to provide advice on the best packaging solutions for your business.
Whether you require a single custom case or specialized export packing, our skilled joiners and carpenters are here to create timber packing solutions tailored to your specific transport and storage needs.
To safeguard your exports, we design bespoke wooden cases for transportation. We offer a variety of case styles, each crafted to meet the unique requirements of your cargo and chosen mode of transport.
Foil-wrapping is an excellent method to prevent moisture from reaching your goods, but our exterior packing solutions provide an additional layer of protection against the elements. Our cases ensure that your exports arrive at their destination safely and securely.
We specialize in custom export packaging for heavyweight and oversized machinery, skid packages, and large structures of any kind. Our 'hood boxing' service offers protection for large steel skids that already house equipment packages, using custom-framed hanging pack designs to ensure secure transit. We also design and manufacture vessel and tank cradles or saddles on wooden skids, providing safe stowing solutions for flat rack containers. For large units, we offer vacuum packing in tailor-made aluminum foil bags, crafted at our workshops to accommodate all sizes, making them ideal for long-term storage. Additionally, we bundle, skid-mount, and weatherproof structural steel and pipes to facilitate efficient break bulk handling.
Our specialist packing team is certified to build custom packaging for a wide range of goods classified as dangerous. We regularly undergo refresher training to ensure all staff are up-to-date with the latest regulations and requirements. Understanding the properties of what is being transported and how it can react under different conditions, such as temperature, humidity, and agitation, is crucial. These factors can vary significantly depending on the countries and circumstances involved in the transportation of your hazardous goods. With our expertise, you can have complete confidence in the integrity and safety of your items.
Our facilities encompass approximately 60,000 sq. ft. of secure warehousing and yard space, capable of accommodating a wide variety of cargo. From small consignments that are part of major project consolidations to large, over-dimensional equipment requiring long-term storage, we have the capacity to handle it all. Our on-site handling equipment offers heavy lift capabilities, ensuring we can manage various types of cargo efficiently and safely.
We specialise in some of the most demanding industries from energy and defence to aerospace.
