# How are steel products packaged for shipment?

Steel products are typically packaged using methods such as:
● Coils: Wrapped with protective materials like plastic film or VCI (Volatile Corrosion
Inhibitor) paper, secured with steel strapping, and placed on wooden pallets or steel
bases.
● Sheets and Plates: Stacked and secured with steel bands, often with corner protectors
and covered with waterproof materials to prevent corrosion.
● Pipes and Tubes: Bundled together, wrapped in protective materials, and placed in
wooden crates or on skids for stability.
