Inner Packing

Inner Packing refers to the first layer of packaging that directly contacts the product and groups products in certain quantities or units, usually inside the transport packaging (outer packing). Its core functions are to protect the product, facilitate sales and consumption, and enable counting and distribution. It is widely used in export trade of consumer goods, electronics, food, daily necessities, etc. Notes: Inner packing must comply with the importing country's regulations on labeling, materials, environmental protection, and safety (e.g., FDA, REACH, RoHS); for dangerous goods, inner packing must also meet specific standards of international dangerous goods regulations (e.g., IMDG, IATA). The difference from outer packing: inner packing focuses on sales units and product protection, while outer packing focuses on storage, transportation, and handling protection; it often overlaps with sales packing, but inner packing emphasizes the physical level, while sales packing emphasizes marketing functions. In addition, the quantity, size, and markings of inner packing are often agreed upon by both parties in the contract to avoid customs clearance obstruction or customer claims due to non-compliance.
