How does Outsource Packaging deal with timber fumigation?
Officially recognised and registered with the National Department of Agriculture, Outsource Packaging is permitted to fumigate all export-destined crates. As an alternative to fumigation, we offer heat-treated timber. Outsource Packaging provides customers who make use of timber treated in this manner, with a heat-treated certificate of authenticity with each crate it supplies.


 

 

 
Snap Lake and Victor
 

Project: Snap Lake and Victor

Overview
The Snap Lake and Victor projects involved the decommissioning, dismantling and relocation of two diamond sorting plants for De Beers for relocation to Canada.

Both plants were stripped, packed and shipped north of Yellow Knife, Canada, across ice roads. Due to extreme weather conditions, the packing solution, timing and delivery of the packaged cargo to Richards Bay Harbour, was crucial.

  • Approximately 500 000 nails
