Custom Packing Benches for Export Consolidation and Import Processing
Export and import consolidation businesses require workspace setups that can handle the demands of international freight preparation. From combining multiple customer orders into single shipments to repackaging goods for customs clearance, your packing benches need to provide durability and flexibility. Spaceguard manufactures bespoke packing benches specifically designed for freight forwarders, consolidation warehouses, and distribution centres handling international shipments across the UK.
With over 30 years of experience producing industrial workstations, we understand the challenges export companies face. Our packing benches can withstand the demanding nature of consolidation work, where heavy items are frequently handled, multiple packaging materials need to be readily accessible, and workspace efficiency directly impacts your ability to meet shipping deadlines.

International packing requires benches that can handle heavier items without wobbling or flexing, whether preparing goods for palletisation or inspecting imports on arrival in the UK.
Our benches feature fully welded steel frames with a minimum load capacity of 500kg, with extra heavy-duty options up to 1000kg where required. Worktops are available in melamine, laminate, hardwood, or stainless steel, depending on your needs, and benches are designed with generous surfaces to accommodate larger packaging materials, multi-item shipments, or quality inspections. Standard lengths reach 2000mm, with longer configurations available for extended work areas.
Storage is key when handling multiple packaging types for different international destinations. Our benches can include:
Each bench is manufactured to suit your workflow, ensuring your team has everything they need within easy reach.

Once you’re happy with it we can discuss your preferred payment method & terms.
Once payment terms have been agreed, our skilled manufacturing team will build your packing benches.
You can have them installed or shipped directly to you from our East Yorkshire factory.
International shipments require accurate weight documentation for freight calculations and customs declarations. Our packing benches can be designed to accommodate platform scales or integrate weighing equipment directly into the workstation. We manufacture benches with specific weight platform cutouts where required, or provide additional support structures for scales that need to be positioned at precise heights.
Many export businesses now use electronic documentation systems for customs paperwork and shipping manifests. Our benches can be fitted with monitor brackets, keyboard trays, and integrated power supplies with multiple socket outlets positioned exactly where your team needs them. This creates efficient workstations where your staff can weigh, pack, and generate documentation without moving between different work areas.
Organised storage with designated locations for every product type helps eliminate incorrect items being packed. Everything has its place, making missing components immediately obvious.
When all materials are within arm’s reach and logically positioned, your team spends less time searching and more time packing. This efficiency directly impacts how many boxes you can fulfil per shift.
Proper working height and well-positioned storage reduce repetitive strain. Your packers can maintain productivity throughout their shift without unnecessary bending, reaching, or walking.
Monthly product changes are part of subscription box operations. Our modular storage options allow you to reconfigure storage as your product mix evolves, without replacing the entire workstation.

Absolutely. Mobile benches with heavy-duty lockable castors are ideal for spaces that need to be reconfigured based on shipment volumes or cargo types. Castors lock the swivel and wheel mechanisms to provide full stability during use, and unlock easily for repositioning.
