    Procedure Name: Packaging Issue No: 1

    Procedure Ref: AV-SWP-25 Date: 27th January 2020

    POLICY
    Avantis recognises the importance of ensuring the safe delivery of tools and equipment to the job is a vital part of the
    service being provided. However, minimising the use of packaging, and in particular plastics, must be managed aggressively.
    Avantis will ensure that all shipments are packaged in an appropriate manner using sustainable products, re-using
    containers and boxes etc, and utilising other methods to protect equipment from damage during transit.

    SPECIFIC RISKS
    • Hazardous materials
    • Fragile materials
    • Liquids and unstable contents
    • Very heavy contents
    • Special packaging requirements or restrictions
    • Loose multiples

    ARRANGEMENTS
    Wooden Boxes & Pallets
    Manufactured from sustainable sources.

    Package Materials
    Use of plastics (bubble wrap) and polystyrene products (flow pack) is kept to an absolute minimum. Where
    pre-formed plastic blanks (such as end-caps) are used during transportation, they are to be returned to Avantis for re-use
    where applicable.

    Wrapping Materials
    Clingfilm products both clear and black may be used to contain, protect and restrain packaged equipment to pallets etc.
    however, minimal quantities shall be used.

    Heat Wrap
    When using heat wrap, care must be taken with the contents to be packaged as the heat source is an open flame blowlamp
    with shroud.
    NOTE: Under no circumstances must this product be used to package flammable materials or liquids.

    INFORMATION AND TRAINING
