Humans have always needed to transport and protect goods, so packaging, also known as packaging, has always existed in Italy. In Roman times, the best box packaging was terracotta jars, which were used to transport oil, wheat, wine, precious metals and other products throughout the Mediterranean. Nature itself has found ingenious ways to protect the most vulnerable things, such as eggshells, walnuts or shells.
The history of packaging has developed with the history of mankind. For centuries, it has developed new packaging forms with new materials. Starting with wood, a material he can use, through glass, ceramics or metal, to tin at the beginning of this century and plastic after World War II.
Three kinds of packaging
Three basic types of packaging are believed to exist. We found the primary packaging at the point of sale; Its functions and graphic features are designed for a single sales unit. We're talking about bottled water, beverages, canned tuna, peas, bottled detergent, shampoo or CD boxes.
Secondary packaging allows you to sell a certain number of units. After removal, the product remains in the primary packaging. Some secondary packaging is, for example, packaging for six bottles of water, packaging for several cans of tuna or peas, boxes containing 10 CDs, or packaging for various snacks. Tertiary packaging is designed for transportation, that is, many sales units can be moved, and it will never reach the end user unless under special circumstances.
Packaging has always existed.
There is always a need to protect and transport materials. If in Roman times, excellent packaging consisted of terracotta pottery, which was used to protect and transport oil, wheat, wine and any other type of precious metals throughout the Mediterranean... now, as Mr. Wikipedia told us... The history of packaging has evolved with human evolution. In fact, recent history tells how the first pallet was born from the work of the U.S. military during World War II. They found it easier to handle goods on wooden platforms, but not only They realize that these platforms can isolate and protect goods from damage caused by atmospheric factors such as humidity.
In Anzio, the required size is determined by the user. Subsequently, two main dimensions became common and were defined as the standard size: 800 × 1200 mm and 1000 mm × 1200 mm。 The presence of 9 feet allows the pallet to fork from each side and is defined as "4-way pallet". On December 9, 1960, EEC considered the Convention on the Customs Treatment of pallets for the first time in its history: it decided that Mr. pallet himself could enter and leave the member states freely without obligation.
At this point, a question arises... Given that most of the transportation in the old world was carried out by road, is it time for a specific and direct dialogue between pallets and means of transportation? After studying the problems, it is concluded that the best size should be 800 × 1200 mm because it seems to be a format that can adapt to the most common vehicles. Different from the United States, the standard size corresponds to 1000 × 1200mm； The most commonly used size in Japan is 1100 × 1100 mm。Today, in addition to the standard size, all customized models are available as light or heavy as needed: long, short, full bottom or non full bottom, four-way or two-way
