Define packing evidence before the fireplace order is released.

Before Production

Agree the release baseline.

• Confirm model, finish, quantity, voltage and control package.
• Identify carton, reinforced carton, plywood crate or other agreed method.
• State pallet, stack, forklift or container-loading constraints.
• Confirm label language, carton marks, barcodes and private-label requirements.
• Agree the pre-shipment evidence expected by the buyer.

Product Protection

Control movement, abrasion and exposed components.

• Protect finished panels, glass, top surfaces, controls and connection points.
• Immobilize the appliance so weight is not transferred to fragile parts.
• Separate loose accessories and prevent them from striking the product.
• Use moisture protection appropriate to the route and storage expectation.
• Check that lifting and orientation marks match the packed product.

Contents and Documents

Make the received package identifiable and complete.

• Verify accessory list, remote, cables, hoses, tools and agreed spare parts.
• Include the applicable manual, product identification and approved labels.
• Match carton quantity and model marks to the packing list.
• Provide agreed photos of product, accessories, inner protection and closed package.
• Record package dimensions and gross/net weight from shipment documentation.

Shipment Release

Final checks before handover.

• Review visible package damage and closure integrity.
• Confirm shipping marks, consignee references and package count.
• Check commercial invoice and packing list consistency.
• Retain agreed inspection or loading evidence.
• Send document copies and handling information to the buyer.

No universal packing claim: “export packing” is not one fixed construction. The exact method must be selected for the product, quantity, shipping route and contract.
