Roles and challenges of shipping in e-commerce

In e-commerce, shipping often involves individually packaged products not intended for standalone transportation. These items, shipped either by an online retailer or from a distribution center, are typically placed in corrugated cardboard boxes, referred to as "over-boxes," with proper cushioning to ensure safety when sending one or multiple items.

The ISTA 6 Amazon OB procedure has been developed to ensure efficient shipping of individual products weighing up to 32 kg (70 pounds). The goal is to maximize over-box efficiency, whether through the addition of cushioning materials like air cushions or the combination of several separately packaged products.

Impact of the delivery system on e-commerce success

The journey of these products, from Amazon.com to the consumer, involves the use of a reliable parcel delivery system. This step is crucial to ensure the protection and preservation of products until they reach their destination.
