5 Packaging, transport and storage
5.1 Purpose
The packaging is designed to protect the packaged product during transport,
loading, unloading and during periods of storage in such a way that no detri-
mental changes occur. The packaging must protect the goods against per-
mitted transport stresses such as vibration, knocks and moisture (rain, snow,
condensation).
The packaging also prevents the packaged goods from moving impermissi-
bly within the packaging.
5.2 Suitability, structure and production
The goods are packaged in a sturdy cardboard box. This ensures that the
shipment is secure when in the intended transportation position and that
none of its parts touch the loading surface of the means of transport or touch
the ground after unloading.
Inlays inside the box stabilize the goods, preventing prohibited changes in
position, and protecting them from vibration.
5.3 Markings
The packaging bears a signature with instructions for safe transport and cor-
rect storage. The following symbols apply to the shipment of non-hazardous
goods. Adherence to these symbols is mandatory.

5.4 Transportation, receipt and handling of shipments
In addition to vibrations, jolts must also be expected during transportation. In
order to prevent possible damage, avoid dropping, tipping, knocking over
and colliding with the product.
Should the packaging tip over or fall, damage is to be expected regardless of
the weight.
