Load Securement & Stability from Liberty Distributors

Helping you ensure optimal cargo safety.

When it comes to logistics and shipping, the way cargo is loaded plays a critical role in keeping it safe and stable during transportation. The materials used to protect and support cargo, is one of the key components to ensure secure cargo handling. Proper loading patterns can help businesses reduce the risk of damage and improve the efficiency of their shipping operations.

What is Dunnage?

Dunnage is a term that refers to various materials used to safeguard cargo from shifting, vibrating, or colliding during transit. Common types of dunnage include airbags, foam inserts, blocking and bracing materials, and other protective elements. The primary purpose of using dunnage is to prevent cargo movement, distribute weight evenly, and absorb shocks and impacts that may occur during transportation.

However, it’s vital to ensure that dunnage is loaded correctly to provide optimal protection and stability during transit. Loading incorrectly can lead to cargo shifting, imbalance, or contact with other items in the shipment. This can result in damage, breakage, or even accidents during transportation.

To minimize the risks associated with cargo movement, businesses must follow appropriate loading patterns to ensure that the dunnage effectively supports and protects the items being shipped. Furthermore, efficient loading patterns can improve space utilization, enhance load stability, and reduce the chances of goods being dislodged or damaged during transit.

Using high-friction, anti-slip mats during transport can help you to secure your commodities. When used with tie-down straps, these mats increase friction and enhance grip, ensuring that your load is unified with the loading surface. This, in turn, strengthens the connection between the unit load and the surface, reducing the risk of unwanted shifting or movement during transport.
