Bare Packing

Bare Packing refers to the transportation of goods without any packaging or with only the most minimal means (such as binding with ropes or wire). It is suitable for goods that naturally form discrete units, have stable quality, are resistant to impact and pressure, and do not require moisture or rust protection, such as steel, aluminum ingots, timber, rubber, vehicles, and large machinery and equipment. It is typically used in scenarios involving bulk shipping or roll-on/roll-off vessel transport. Precautions: Bare-packed goods are susceptible to moisture, rust, and damage, so the packaging method and risk allocation must be clearly specified in the contract; if the goods require rust protection, anti-rust oil may be applied; if securing is needed, brackets or dunnage may be used. Difference from "Bulk Packing": Bulk Packing refers to unpackaged bulk cargo (such as grain and ore), whereas Bare Packing refers to unitized goods without packaging; "Packaging," as the counterpart to "Bare Packing," provides protection, convenience, and promotional value. Bare Packing can save packaging costs but may increase the risk of cargo damage, so appropriate insurance coverage is required.
