Wood & Timber: High-Strength Securing for Global Forestry Logistics

 
 
 
 
From raw logs to finished plywood, the timber industry requires packaging that can withstand extreme tension and environmental exposure. Juhong Packing provides high-performance PET and Steel strapping systems engineered to keep wood loads stable and pristine during long-haul transit.
Efficiency Safety Optimal fit

Core Solutions: The Shift to High-Performance PET

While steel has traditionally dominated the timber industry, more mills are switching to PET Strapping to maximize ROI and protect product quality.

This traditional heavy-duty solution is engineered for maximum rigidity and zero-stretch security, ideal for large-scale wood exports that require absolute structural integrity. As the National Standard Drafter (GB/T 39040—2020), Juhong ensures that the joint strength of the steel seals meets the most rigorous safety requirements for global maritime and rail logistics.
 
 
AAR Certified PET Strapping for Secure Lumber and Timber Bundling
 

High-Tension PET Strapping (The Cost-Leader)

Elastic Memory: Unlike steel, PET expands and contracts with the wood. As timber dries and "shrinks" during transit, PET stays tight, whereas steel may go slack.
Zero Staining: Wood is highly porous. Steel rusts can permanently stain premium lumber. PET is 100% rust-proof, ensuring your timber arrives in "Grade A" condition.
Cost Reduction: High-strength PET provides comparable break strength to steel at a 30-50% lower cost per meter.

Heavy-Duty Steel Strapping

Maximum Rigidity: For extremely heavy log bundles or sharp-edged timber where zero-elongation is required.
Black Painted or Zinc-Coated Protection: Our galvanized or painted steel strapping provides superior corrosion resistance for long-term outdoor storage.

Global Standards & Engineering Compliance

For international exporters, compliance is the baseline for trust. Juhong materials are tested to meet the most rigorous standards in North America, Europe, and South America.

Wood & Timber: Expert FAQ

  • Q Why are more timber mills switching from steel to PET strapping?

    A A: This shift is primarily driven by cost optimization and product integrity. For the same specifications, PET strapping can reduce packaging costs by 30% to 50% compared to steel. Beyond savings, PET lacks the sharp edges of steel, significantly reducing workplace injury risks. Most importantly, PET is 100% rust-proof, eliminating the "orange oxidation" stains that can ruin the surface value of premium lumber in humid environments.
  • Q Will the strapping loosen if the timber shrinks during long-haul transport?

    A A: This is a major pain point in the industry. Traditional steel is rigid; once wood loses moisture and shrinks, steel strapping often goes slack. Juhong’s high-performance PET strapping features superior "Elastic Memory." As the timber volume decreases, the PET strap contracts with the load, maintaining constant tension and ensuring the stability of the cargo throughout truck or maritime transit.
  • Q Does your strapping comply with mandatory safety standards for international wood exports?

    A A: Absolutely. Juhong is an AAR-certified manufacturer (ID: 124) by the Association of American Railroads. This certification is the "Gold Standard" for any timber or plywood entering North American rail and maritime systems. Furthermore, our products are benchmarked against ASTM (USA) and EN (Europe) specifications. As the Official Drafter of the National Standard (GB/T 39040—2020), our joint efficiency consistently exceeds industry benchmarks.
  • Q How do you prevent strapping from damaging the edges of high-grade plywood or flooring?

    A A: We address this through advanced high-molecular modification. Our PET strapping is engineered to provide high break strength while maintaining smoother, more rounded edges than standard straps. This reduces "strap bite" on delicate wood surfaces. For maximum protection, we recommend using our straps in conjunction with edge protectors or our high-pre-stretch machine film to distribute pressure evenly across the pallet.
  • Q Is your strapping and tooling compatible with our existing pneumatic or fully automatic lines?

    A A: Yes. Our PET and steel strapping are manufactured with "Machine-Grade Precision," meaning width and thickness tolerances are strictly controlled to ensure seamless operation with international tool brands like Fromm, Signode, and Itatools. Additionally, our Magazined Seals are designed for high-frequency, jam-free loading, allowing your production lines to maintain 24/7 efficiency in high-volume sawmill and plywood environments.
