Dunnage Air Bags

These Air Bags Are Ideal for Shipping and Trucking Industry

Dunnage air bags are a crucial shipping product for many companies across the United States, since they allow for safer shipping practices. The most common cause of freight and shipping damage is related to freight falling forward to backward and the double and triple decked skids bouncing in transit. But with the use of air bags, you can limit these instances. They ably restrain movement of all cargo in trucks, overseas containers, and railcars. These bags work by filling voids, bracing loads, absorbing vibrations, and protecting cargo from in-transit damage.

What Are Dunnage Air Bags?

Dunnage air bags are bags that get inflated with air and then placed in between items in a shipping container or truck. In theory, they prevent large items from shifting during transit and protect against damage to the shipment. When working properly, air bags secure items for shipment to keep the truck, trailer, or container evenly balanced. In the past, shippers used empty pallets, empty cardboard containers and 2 x 4s in an effort to stabilize shipping, but these air bags are a major improvement. Dunnage air bags are made from heavy duty materials. If they are not punctured, then they are perfect for reuse. Offering the same protection benefits during shipping transit.
