Wooden crates are heavy and unforgiving. Additionally, they don’t protect your goods in transit as well as you might be expected to believe. They require a hammer and nails or power tools to assemble — and they’re not really reusable for anything but firewood. They’re certainly not waterproof.
When you add all this up, you might wonder what the benefits of using a wooden crate are. It seems like there are a lot of downsides.
The worst downside to those old wooden heavy-duty shipping crates is how unsafe they can be. If you could choose an alternative for shipping, you’d probably jump all over it, as long as it could deliver the goods for you.
Have you ever considered that an Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crate could be the answer? Corrugated knock-down shipping crates could be every bit as much of a solution to your needs as the old wood ones — only better.
Why? Because Ecorrcrate is safer. That’s something you can definitely jump all over — and then some.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Are Safer
If you’re looking for knock-down shipping crate solutions that work hard for you and your people, Ecorcrate is the answer:
- Modular panels are easy to maneuver and completely reusable
- Corrugate is lightweight and shock absorbent

- No worries about injuries sustained from normal handling
Ecorrcrate is custom designed for your bespoke application, and it ships to you in kit form, completely knocked down.

With Ecorrcrate, there’s no danger of an employee sustaining an injury from:
- A protruding nail or screw
- Splinters, spike knots, raised grain, or splits
- A malfunctioning or misused power drill
- Hammer blows
- Large, heavy, solid wood components
- Rusty hardware
Ecorrcrates are sustainable shipping crates that enhance your employees’ safety by eliminating their exposure to unsafe and unnecessary conditions.
There is a better way to ship: with Ecorrcrate.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Don’t Require Power Tools
Ecorrcrate is the knockdown shipping crate that requires no tools to be assembled, disassembled, and reassembled repeatedly. Since each corrugate component of your custom Ecorrcrate system simply slides into place and is friction-fit, absolutely no tools are necessary.
That means you’re going to be able to eliminate your company’s exposure to unnecessary worker’s comp claims — just one of the benefits Ecorrcrate brings to any operation.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Are Lighter than Wood
The most cost-effective shipping crates are those that allow you to gain efficiencies that are impossible with other solutions. When you have to ship heavy, large, or extremely sensitive freight, your shipping crate doesn’t have to be heavy to be heavy duty.
Since Ecorrcrates are made of high-quality recyclable corrugate, they’re a lot lighter than wood. And that benefit doesn’t just allow you to save on freight by shipping with lighter tare weights — it allows you to save on the production floor.
Your staff no longer has to put together clumsy and unwieldy rough-sawn wooden crates with power tools or a hammer and nails. Now they can just slip the lightweight pieces of Ecorrcrate together with ease. These pieces are easy to manipulate, too, and for crewmembers with smaller hands, that means less effort and less injury.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Are Easier to Assemble and Put Together
If you’ve been searching for cost-efficient shipping crates, Ecorrcrate is where your search ends.
Since Ecorrcrates are constructed of tough yet lightweight corrugate, your workers won’t have to strain to build your shipping containers. Far from the rather crude and hacked-together look and feel of wood crates, Ecorrcrates are weathertight, friction fit, and very easy to use.
When you use this shipping solution, you’re not just going to keep your employees safer — you’re going to keep them being more productive:
- Ecorrcrates assemble and disassemble faster than wooden crates
- Each element fits where it’s supposed to for a foolproof fit and finish
- No tools means no risky situations where one employee holds a component while another nails it down
Ecorrcrates are rugged and dependable, ensuring a custom fit for your merchandise every time you use them for hundreds of uses.
The added bonus is that they make you and your business look much more professional than those old repurposed wood fences you’ve been using up to now.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Can Reduce Injuries
Ecorrcrates and corrugated pallets, being so much lighter (while being just as durable), just may be the perfect solution to a problem you may not have known you’ve been struggling with. The 3ply corrugate of Eccorrcrate is 70% lighter than the ½” OSB used on wooden crate.
If one of your employees suffers even a minor injury in connection with the handling of your existing shipping crate solutions, that’s a preventable injury. And nobody wants to have to deal with that. Not you, not your employees, and not your bottom line.
Ecorrcrate Corrugated Shipping Crates Don’t Use Fasteners
Ecorrcrates aren’t just safer — they’re sustainable. If you’re looking for a safer, sustainable shipping crate, these eco-friendly crates are just what you need. Ecorrcrates fulfill every criterion that wood crates don’t:
