Accident, rough weather, unloading, reloading and pilferage, everything on the way has to be taken into consideration to ensure the safe arrival of the goods. Different types of goods— goods subject to breakage, goods subject to moisture, goods with still other special treatment in transit— require different types of packing. That’s why some large export forms have a special department for export packing and the whole question is under regular review. Many firms employ special export packers or forwarding agents to do their packing for them. Back Reading A Task 1 Before reading the passage, see how much you know about packing by answering the following questions. Back 1. What is the purpose of packing? 2. How many types of packing are usually used in international trade? Unit 6 Packing Packing serves as a form of protection, facilitates loading, unloading and storage, and prevents pilferage。 furthermore, it can promote sales. Packing can be divided into transport packing (usually known as outer packing) and sales packing (usually known as inner packing). Still, there is another category of packing, called “neutral packing”. An Introduction to Packing Packing is of great importance in international trade. It may be appropriately said that packing is to goods what clothing is to men. Packing not only serves as a form of protection, but also facilitates loading, unloading and stowage, and prevents pilferage. Furthermore it can promote sales. Packing can be divided into transport packing (usually known as outer packing) and sales packing (usually known as inner packing). Transport packing is done mainly to keep the goods safe and sound during transportation. It must not only be solid enough to prevent the packed goods from any damage, but also be pilferageproof, easy to store and convenient to load and unload. Sales packing is done mainly to push sales. It is now universally recognized as a decisive aid in selling household consumer goods. It can be realized in various forms and with different materials as long as it is nice to look at, easy to handle and helpful to the sales. Still, there is another category of packing, called “neutral packing”. This kind of packing carries no mark of the name of the original country of the packed goods and no signs of the original trademark, with the view to elude the tariff of the import country or satisfy the buyer’s special requirement. Reading A Unit 6 Packing 在對(duì)外貿(mào)易中，包裝起了很重要的作用。恰當(dāng)?shù)貋?lái)說(shuō)，包裝對(duì)于貨物的作用就如同衣服對(duì)于人類。包裝不僅起到了保護(hù)的作用，還對(duì)貨物的裝卸、存儲(chǔ)提供了方便，并可以防止貨物失竊的發(fā)生。此外，包裝還能促進(jìn)商品的銷售。包裝可分為運(yùn)輸包裝（通常稱為外部包裝）和銷售包裝（通常稱作內(nèi)部包裝）。運(yùn)輸包裝主要是為了保證貨物在運(yùn)輸過(guò)程中完好無(wú)損。運(yùn)輸包裝不僅僅要足夠結(jié)實(shí)，從而避免貨物的損壞，而且還要防盜、易于存儲(chǔ)和裝卸。銷售包裝主要是為了促進(jìn)銷售。在家庭用品的銷售上，人們現(xiàn)在普遍認(rèn)為包裝的作用至關(guān)重要。只要外表美觀、易于攜帶并促進(jìn)銷售，銷售包裝外表可以五花八門(mén)，材料也可以各種各樣。另外還有一種包裝稱作“中性包裝”。這種包裝外表沒(méi)有貨物原產(chǎn)國(guó)的標(biāo)示，也沒(méi)有原產(chǎn)商標(biāo)，目的是逃避進(jìn)口國(guó)的關(guān)稅或滿足買(mǎi)方的特殊要求。 Reading A ?? Outer packing must be strikingly marked to facilitate identification and transportation. There are three principal types of marking which may have to be done on export package: (1) The consignee’s own distinctive marks including the consignee’s initials, usually in a square, circle, triangle or diamond, and the name of the port of destination。 (2) Any official mark required by authorities. For example, some countries require the name of the original country of the goods to be marked on every package, and weight and dimensions may also be required。 (
