To prevent damage during long-distance sea freight, sauna blankets are packed using a multi-layer protective system. This includes individual waterproof plastic wrapping to block moisture, shock-absorbing foam corner protectors, and heavy-duty double-wall corrugated export cartons. For bulk shipments, pallets with stretch wrap and strapping bands are utilized to secure the cargo, ensuring structural integrity and preventing shifting in transit.
At Guangzhou Beautywellness Health Technology Co., Ltd., the packaging process for sauna blankets, such as the Oxford 2 zones Infrared Sauna Blanket (Model: BW-802), is strictly regulated to survive rigorous sea freight conditions. Because these products utilize advanced infrared heating elements and electronic controllers, safeguarding them against physical impact and sea moisture is critical. The factory implements a strict quality control protocol, including 100% full inspection of finished products and raw materials, alongside rigorous spot inspections of packaging materials before dispatch. 
Export-oriented manufacturing requires strict compliance with international safety and quality standards. The sauna blankets are certified with CE (ZKT-2505169487C), FCC (LCSA053122032E), and RoHS (AITSZ-250902020R01RC09) certificates, ensuring that the components are robust enough to withstand long-term storage and transport. Real-world shipping success, such as the delivery of far-infrared sauna capsule and sauna cabin units to clients in the United States and France, demonstrates the effectiveness of these heavy-duty packaging standards in preventing transit damage. 
Different shipping methods require specific packaging standards to balance cost, delivery time, and cargo safety. The table below details the recommended packaging configurations based on the selected logistics option and standard payment terms.

How do you protect the electronic controllers of the sauna blankets during sea freight?
The electronic controllers of the BW-802 sauna blanket are packed in dedicated shock-absorbing bubble pockets within the main carton to prevent physical impact. Moisture-absorbing silica gel desiccant packets are placed inside the plastic wrapping to eliminate any internal humidity.
What is the packaging material used for the outer box of the sauna blankets?
We use heavy-duty, double-wall corrugated cardboard cartons with high bursting strength. These cartons are designed to withstand high compression forces during vertical stacking in sea containers.
Is there a spot check on the packaging before dispatch?
Yes, we perform a 100% full inspection on finished products and a dedicated spot inspection on all packaging materials and ancillary materials. This ensures that every shipped box meets export-grade durability standards.
