Mobile Battery Packaging is not just used for appealing to the customers, but they are an essential part of protecting your products during shipping. You can ensure your product’s safety and express the details of your battery, like expiry date, voltage, and other info easily. Each mobile battery is not of the same size, so you need the various customization options in your packaging. Here comes the mobile battery packaging that is adaptable to any size, shape, and design you need for your product packaging.  
 
Let’s get into the details of what kind of mobile battery packaging you should buy for your items to stand out from others.

Why Mobile Battery Packaging is Crucial?

Safety first, it’s the same proverb applied to the mobile battery packaging as well. But there are some other elements that are added when you use custom boxes for your mobile batteries. As they are given below:  

  • Safety: Preventing short circuits, punctures, and thermal runaway.
  • Protection: Guarding against physical damage during transit and storage. 
  • Compliance: Meeting strict regulations (e.g., UN 38.3, IATA, DOT) for shipping lithium-ion batteries. 
  • Brand Image: Reflecting quality and reliability.

Key Elements of Effective Mobile Battery Packaging

When it comes to mobile battery packaging, there are four layers of packaging, you need to consider:

Inner Packaging

Inner packaging is most of the time made of anti-static bags, foam pouches, molded pulps, and cardboard. You can customize the size of these inserts according to your needs. They’re perfect for absorbing any kind of shock and keep the batteries separate from contact.

  • Individual cell/battery wrapping (e.g., anti-static bags, foam pouches). 
  • Custom inserts (foam, molded pulp, cardboard) for secure fit and shock absorption. 
  • Separation of batteries to prevent contact. 

Outer Packaging (Mobile Battery Packaging)

Outer packaging is also termed as secondary packaging. They’re made of cardboard, kraft, rigid, or corrugated boxes. For cost-effective and more durable packaging solutions for your mobile batteries, use double-wall or triple-wall corrugated cardboard boxes.

  • Material: Strong corrugated cardboard (e.g., double-wall or triple-wall for larger quantities/weights). 
  • Construction: Durable, crush-resistant designs. 
  • Ventilation (if applicable): Though less common for individual mobile batteries, important for some battery types.

Labeling and Markings

As your mobile batteries are standalone batteries, it’s important to print UN3840 on them to indicate for the handler or storage. Put hazard number and orientation arrows with other company info or emergency contact.

  • UN numbers and proper shipping names. 
  • Hazard labels (e.g., Class 9 miscellaneous dangerous goods). 
  • Orientation arrows, handling instructions. 
  • Company information and emergency contacts.

Sealing

Primary packaging for mobile batteries is the combination of a PVC window to contain the batteries and cardboard. You can easily make them strong and temper-free, where the mark of opening leaves a clear indication that the battery has been touched during the process. Once the battery is open, there will be no chance to pack it back the way it was before.

  • Strong, tamper-evident tape. 
  • Consideration for moisture barriers.

Regulatory Compliance about Mobile Battery Packaging: What You Need to Know

If you’re shipping your mobile batteries across borders, you need to comply with the international, national, and testing requirements. Batteries lie in the dangerous goods regulations category and need more attention for packaging. The Packaging World follows the same standards as given by UPS about battery packaging. Your mobile batteries will be saved in perfectly crafted custom boxes. Look at the standards we follow here:

  • International Regulations: 
  • IATA (International Air Transport Association) DGR (Dangerous Goods Regulations). 
  • IMO (International Maritime Organization) IMDG Code. 
  • ICAO (International Civil Aviation Organization) Technical Instructions.
  • National/Regional Regulations:
  • DOT (Department of Transportation) in the USA. 
  • Specific EU directives (e.g., WEEE, RoHS if relevant to the product).
  • Testing Requirements: UN 38.3 testing for lithium batteries
  • Documentation: Shipper’s Declaration for Dangerous Goods.

Customization and Branding for Mobile Battery Packaging

You can print your brand name, logo, and artwork easily on custom packaging for mobile batteries. The right visuals and info on the packaging not only enhance the unboxing experience of your customers, but they are fully sustainable as well. It means there will be no harmful effect on the environment.

  • Branding Opportunities: Using custom printing, logos, and brand colors on the outer box. 
  • Unboxing Experience: Make the packaging visually appealing while maintaining safety. 
  • Sustainability: Use options for eco-friendly materials (recycled content, recyclable designs).
