Filling gaps in the weight distribution in freight transportation

When transporting goods, it is essential to ensure that the weight is evenly distributed to guarantee the stability and safety of the load. Proper weight distribution in the transport of goods is crucial to prevent accidents and damage to the goods. When weight is not evenly distributed, cargo can tip over, slide or be damaged during transport. In addition, uneven weight distribution can affect vehicle stability and jeopardize the safety of the driver and other road users.

However, despite distributing the weight inside the vehicle or container as effectively as possible, it is very common for there to be empty spaces between the goods, which can unbalance the weight and cause problems during transport. To solve this problem, Niupack is also available to fill the empty spaces.

Our void fillers, i.e. our Niupack filling system, are designed to fill the gaps between goods in a load, thus maintaining the stability of the load and preventing it from shifting during transport. Void fillers have many uses, but are especially useful in mixed or irregular loads, where voids are more common and can affect weight distribution significantly.

Void fillers work by creating a physical barrier between products, occupying empty spaces and preventing the load from moving unsteadily. The different models of Niupack adapt to the shape and size of the voids, providing additional support to the load and maintaining weight balance. Depending on the type of goods and the level of protection required, different types or models can be used to optimize weight distribution and ensure load safety during transport.

Advantages of using void fillers

The use of void fillers in freight transportation offers numerous advantages, including:

  • Improves load stability by avoiding sudden movements.
  • Protects the goods from damage and shocks during transport.
  • Facilitates stacking and load handling.
  • Contributes to optimizing the space available in transport vehicles.
  • Reduces costs associated with cargo damage and product loss claims.

Niupack void fillers are widely used in various industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceutical, electronics or any type of logistics, to prevent damage to products due to shocks or sudden movements and to maintain product integrity. In each of these sectors, void fillers play a crucial role in balancing and protecting the load during transport.

These contribute to minimizing the risks of accidents, damage to goods and economic losses, while optimizing efficiency in logistics management. Therefore, in addition to balanced weight distribution, it is important to use an effective system to maintain cargo integrity at all times.
