Wire Cage

In foreign trade terminology, "Wire Cage" typically refers to a cage-like packaging or transport container made of metal wire mesh, used for loading, protecting, and transporting goods. Its features include good ventilation, light weight, and relatively high strength. It is commonly used for loading fresh agricultural products, live poultry, parts, scrap metal, etc. Usage scenarios include sea, land, and air transport, especially suitable for items that need ventilation or to prevent goods from scattering. Precautions: Select appropriate wire diameter and mesh size according to cargo weight and dimensions to avoid deformation caused by overloading; if used for export wooden packaging, note whether it complies with ISPM15 standards (but wire cages themselves are usually exempt); during transport, it should be securely fixed to prevent collision damage. Differences from other terms: Compared with "Wooden Case," wire cages are lighter and more ventilated but offer weaker protection; compared with "Pallet," wire cages can be stacked and can hold loose items, but forklift operation requires attention to structural strength. In addition, if a letter of credit requires "packed in wire cages," this packaging must be strictly followed, otherwise it may constitute a discrepancy.
