Pack

The activities associated with packing and labeling the products in preparation for shipment. This may include inserting or affixing invoices and import/export documentation.

  • Boxing, bagging, bottling or containerizing
  • Over-boxing
  • Inserting protective filler (e.g. peanuts)
  • Inserting documentation
  • Inserting consumables
