The wood from a sawmill located in France allows for multiple uses, for construction, carpentry, formwork or even packaging of everyday consumer products. The sawmill employee is responsible for sorting the logs upon arrival and before and after drying. His expert knowledge helps the manufacturer in his choices. A final check is carried out when the products are delivered.
Quality wood processed by a forestry sector can serve different purposes. The top of the range is generally used for the custom design of furniture and flooring, for carpentry and cabinetmaking. The second choice is used for the construction of roof structures and other load-bearing structures. The third choice is reserved for the manufacture of light or more robust packaging. Finally, the fourth choice can be used for formwork. It all depends on the species being processed, the thickness and the dimensions required. A certain knowledge is also necessary here. Sawmill employees used to receiving logs immediately recognize a log intended for carpentry and a log intended for the manufacture of packaging such as pallets or vegetable crates.
Rigid packaging, crates, pallets and any other custom-made manufacturing carried out in France and intended for the transport of goods are more or less solid depending on the know-how of the manufacturer. However, the quality of product storage depends on the quality of the packaging. Much more rigid than cardboard, wooden packaging meets a specific demand according to the material to be transported: vegetables and fruit, industrial product, fragile material or range with toxic risks requiring more effective protection. All packaging must have precise dimensions, according to needs. The specialist must know how to plan the future packaging according to the storage conditions and taking into account the necessary protection. Foodstuffs require suitable primary packaging.
The protection of industrial or food products should not be taken lightly. Cardboard helps to organize. Wooden crates help to secure. Light industrial and agri-food packaging helps to package in the most rational way possible while taking into account the standards in force. The products grouped in this category are crates, small boxes, vegetable trays, oyster baskets or even camembert boxes. To produce packaging products in line with demand, Scierie Chauvin works alongside professionals. It is equipped with state-of-the-art technology, a computerized system capable of helping men in the field to determine the quality of the wood and to assist in its processing for industrial uses such as the manufacture of packaging.
Conditioning pallets, transport crates and other robust and reusable packaging must be able to be handled by machines such as pallet trucks and forklift trucks with side or front forks. The dimensions of the pallets must therefore be strictly respected. Rotation pallets and half pallets are made to measure.
For crates, the constraint problems are similar. These fully enclosed packages must withstand transport by road, air or sea. Full or slatted crates, custom-made crates or transport cradles require resistant wood. The best packaging is the most carefully made, regardless of the method of manufacture or the material: wood or cardboard.
