Designed for Geology, Mining, and Oil & Gas Applications
1. Intelligent Protection for Harsh Logistics
At Geofactory, packaging is not a secondary step it’s a core part of the delivery process. Our equipment is used across demanding sectors such as the mining industry, the oil & gas industry, and research in geology. Whether we’re shipping a drill core saw or a preservation system, each product is prepared to withstand the realities of air, sea, and road transport.
We design every crate in-house to match the equipment’s weight, shape, and fragility. All wooden boxes are reinforced internally and include custom forklift access points for safe handling. To comply with international regulations, our crates are ISPM 15 certified ensuring smooth customs clearance and protection against pests during long-haul journeys.
This attention to construction quality ensures that large, high-value instruments such as our Slabbing Saw 500 or Plugging System arrive intact, even after complex logistics routes.
2. Smart Materials for Core Safety
Beyond external protection, Geofactory invests heavily in the interior structure of packaging. We protect sensitive components—such as precision blades, pumps, or drill core holders using:
- Custom-molded technical foam: Tailored to each part’s geometry to prevent
movement and absorb shock. - Inflatable air bags (dunnage bags): Used to stabilize heavy equipment and prevent
lateral displacement. - Moisture barriers and sealed packaging: Essential for humidity-sensitive
materials, especially in long ocean transits or storage in tropical regions.
These solutions are particularly important for shipments involving drill core equipment, where maintaining integrity and cleanliness is vital for accurate laboratory results.
Each interior layout is developed to ease unpacking and installation on-site. When necessary, we include internal braces and support frames to help clients handle large units with maximum safety and minimal effort.
3. A Professional and Sustainable Approach
We understand that first impressions matter. Our packaging reflects the same quality
and professionalism as our engineering. Each crate is:
- Clearly labelled with handling instructions
- Clean and easy to open
- Delivered with sealed documentation (manuals, warranty certificates, inspection
forms)
We also offer video guidance and QR code access for clients who need assistance during unpacking or setup.
From South American mining camps to oilfield laboratories in the Middle East, our packaging ensures Geofactory machines arrive ready to perform. We adapt crates based on final destination—whether that means extra humidity protection, reinforced corners, or anti-theft accessories for aerial, maritime, or road transport.
Finally, we remain committed to sustainability. All wood used is sourced from responsible forestry operations, and we prioritise recyclable or reusable materials when designing interiors. For repeat campaigns or field projects, we offer reusable transport crates as part of our eco-responsible logistics strategy.
Conclusion
Geofactory’s smart packaging reflects the same care we apply to machine design: precise, protective, and professional. Whether for a drill core saw, a geological sampling tool, or a lab unit for the mining or oil & gas industry, your equipment is in safe hands from our workshop to your site, by air, sea, or road.
