AXIUM PACKAGING Helps Preserve Elegance: Protecting Limoges Creamers & Sugar Bowls for a New Generation

New Albany, OH – October 26, 2023 – For collectors, antique enthusiasts, and those who simply appreciate the finer things in life, Limoges creamers and sugar bowls represent a legacy of exquisite craftsmanship. But these delicate porcelain pieces are incredibly vulnerable during shipping and storage. That’s where AXIUM PACKAGING LLC, a leading packaging solutions provider based in New Albany, Ohio, steps in. We're not just about boxes; we're about protecting history, artistry, and sentimental value. AXIUM PACKAGING, located at 9005 Smiths Mill Rd, specializes in creating custom packaging solutions for a wide range of industries. However, we've recently focused significant attention on serving the antique and collectible market, and particularly on providing robust, reliable packaging for fragile items like Limoges porcelain. You can reach us at 773-588-5044. The Challenge: Protecting Limoges From Damage Limoges porcelain, known for its delicate beauty and intricate designs, is notoriously susceptible to chipping, cracking, and even complete breakage during transit. Standard packaging simply doesn’t cut it. Collectors, antique dealers, and even individuals selling online need packaging that goes beyond the basics. They need assurance that their valuable pieces will arrive at their destination safe and sound. “We started seeing a real need for a packaging partner who understood the fragility of Limoges,” explains a representative from AXIUM PACKAGING. “It’s not just about throwing something in a box with some bubble wrap. It's about understanding the points of stress, the types of damage that are most common, and then designing a packaging solution that specifically addresses those vulnerabilities.” AXIUM PACKAGING’s Solution: A Multi-Layered Approach AXIUM PACKAGING doesn’t offer a one-size-fits-all solution. We work directly with our clients to understand the specific dimensions and weight of the Limoges creamer and sugar bowl being shipped. This allows us to create a custom-designed package tailored to provide maximum protection. Here's a breakdown of the key elements of our protective packaging system: Custom-Fitted Inserts: Forget flimsy cardboard dividers. We utilize custom-molded foam inserts, precisely shaped to cradle the creamer and sugar bowl, preventing any movement during transit. This is crucial. Any shifting inside the box can lead to direct impact and breakage. These inserts aren’t just ‘close enough’ – they’re form-fitting, ensuring a snug, secure hold. Multi-Layered Cushioning: We don’t rely on just one layer of bubble wrap. We incorporate multiple layers of cushioning materials, including high-density foam, bubble wrap (both standard and anti-static), and packing peanuts (eco-friendly options are available). This creates a shock-absorbing barrier that dissipates impact energy. Double-Walled Corrugated Boxes: We use only high-quality, double-walled corrugated boxes, selected for their strength and durability. These boxes are significantly more resistant to crushing and tearing than standard single-walled boxes. Reinforced Sealing: We use heavy-duty packing tape to securely seal the box, reinforcing all seams and edges. We also apply “Fragile” labels prominently on all sides of the box, alerting handlers to exercise extra care. Humidity Control (Optional): For exceptionally valuable or antique pieces, we offer optional humidity control inserts. Porcelain can be susceptible to moisture damage over time, so these inserts help maintain a stable environment during shipping. Individual Packaging for Sets: When shipping a complete set (creamer and sugar bowl), we ensure each piece is individually wrapped and cushioned before being placed within the larger protective packaging. This prevents pieces from rubbing against each other and causing damage. Beyond Protection: Peace of Mind AXIUM PACKAGING understands that shipping valuable Limoges creamers and sugar bowls isn’t just about preventing physical damage; it’s about providing peace of mind. Knowing that your precious heirloom or investment is securely packaged and protected allows you to relax and trust that it will arrive at its destination safely. “We've had clients tell us they were afraid to ship their Limoges pieces for years because they were so worried about breakage,” says the AXIUM PACKAGING representative. “After using our packaging, they've become confident shippers. That’s the best compliment we can receive.” Serving a Growing Market The demand for secure packaging for antiques and collectibles is growing, driven by the increasing popularity of online marketplaces and the growing number of collectors worldwide.
