Welcome to Kolhapur Wooden Packing Saw Mill
Kolhapur Wooden Packing Saw Mill is an ISPM 15 certified wooden packaging boxes manufacturer based in Shiroli MIDC, Kolhapur, Maharashtra. We custom-build wooden boxes using pine wood, local hardwoods such as eucalyptus and babul, and premium plywood for industries that ship heavy machinery, automotive parts, electronics, and pharmaceutical equipment across India and overseas. With over 50 years of packaging experience and 4,000+ customers served, every export box is heat-treated and IPPC-stamped to ISPM 15 standards so shipments clear customs without fumigation delays.
ISPM 15 is the International Plant Protection Convention standard that requires wood packaging material used in international trade to be heat-treated or fumigated and stamped with the IPPC mark, preventing the spread of wood-boring pests across borders. Kolhapur Wooden Packing supplies heat-treated (HT), IPPC-stamped wooden boxes for export shipments, so they pass phytosanitary inspection in the destination country without delay or rejection.
| Material | Best Suited For | Key Property |
|---|---|---|
| Pine wood | Lightweight machinery, electronics | Easy to shape, treatable for moisture resistance |
| Eucalyptus (hardwood) | Medium-to-heavy industrial goods | High strength-to-weight ratio, locally sourced |
| Babul (hardwood) | Heavy engineering & auto components | Dense grain, high load-bearing capacity |
| Plywood | Precision equipment, pharma machinery | Smooth finish, dimensional stability, lighter weight |
Buyers often aren't sure which packing format fits their cargo. Here's the difference:
| Feature | Wooden Boxes | Plywood Boxes | Wooden Crates |
|---|---|---|---|
| Enclosure | Fully enclosed, solid panels | Fully enclosed, smooth finish | Open or slatted frame |
| Best for | General industrial cargo, machinery | Lightweight, precision equipment | Bulky goods needing ventilation |
| Relative weight | Medium to heavy | Lightweight | Medium |
| Typical use case | Export shipping, long-term storage | Electronics, pharma machinery | Agricultural & industrial bulk loads |
Dimensions, weight, and fragility of the goods are reviewed.
