Drum Skids
A number of Drum Skid packages can be offered for various applications including dry powders and vaccines. Opposite is a design used for the protection of 4 x 200 litre open top Briggs drums, used to ship pharmaceutical powder in air-cargo. The design includes customs and QA tagout points for tamper evidence.
The Skid allows easy fork-lift handling from either side of the pallet. Without the Skid, in-flight pressure changes would cause the lid to lift allowing the contents to discharge into the air-cargo hold. Specially designed pressure pads allow for a controlled expansion and contraction of the package.
Other designs integrate Ramps and Drum Dolly storage to solve particular logistic difficulties.
