WIREBOUND SHIPPING CONTAINERS
FOR GLOBAL TRANSPORT

Our wooden wirebound containers are an ideal solution for automotive shipping, combining lightweight design and cost efficiency. Developed initially for the automotive industry in the United States, Rowlinson Packaging Ltd’s wirebound containers are manufactured for clients throughout the UK.

The unique wirebound design provides additional strength, allowing for thinner timber or plywood sheathing, making these collapsible containers robust, light, and cost-effective.

Customised Wirebound Shipping Containers

Each wirebound container from Rowlinson Packaging Ltd is tailored to meet your specific needs, including scale, dimensions, and materials. Whether you need timber or plywood cases, our packaging solutions include internal corrugated cartons with blocking and bracing to secure contents during storage or shipment.

The innovative design of our wirebound containers ensures full collapsibility and flat-pack storage, significantly reducing storage space when not in use. These flat-pack containers can be easily assembled by one person, featuring a unique pallet base that securely locks each panel. This allows for quick and effortless assembly, with an option to leave an ‘access door’ for convenient loading.

Compared to traditional cases, crates, and other robust corrugated solutions, our wirebound containers offer a highly cost-effective shipping solution, customised to your product specifications even at high volumes. Manufactured on an automatic assembly line, these wooden containers provide a level of consistency and reliability, ensuring the safety and security of your products with every order.
