Buy DPD Parcel S and benefit from the advantages of DPD shipping

If you are looking for a reliable shipping company, DPD shipping is just the right address for you. The German company has more than 40 years of experience in parcel and courier services and convinces customers with good quality of shipping packages, fast shipping of parcels within Germany as well as internationally.
DPD parcels are offered in different sizes and automatically receive insurance for shipping. In order for your cardboard box to be suitable for fast delivery, it is important that you pack the items in the box with the right size. You can calculate for DPD online parcel S measurements that will help you to find out the right box size.
The DPD Parcel S size refers to the cartons whose dimensions of the longest and shortest side do not exceed 500 mm and 50 cm, respectively. The carton of this size is made of recyclable corrugated cardboard and can be recycled.
The DPD S parcel is usually made of single wall corrugated cardboard. The term "single wall" refers to the structure of the cardboard. The cardboard is constructed in such a way that it consists of a top layer, a flute (hence single wall) and another top layer. It is quite common for each layer to use different grades of paper in combination with each other to provide solid stability. The conventional construction consists of a top layer of kraftliner, followed by the flute of testliner and another outer top layer of kraftliner. In our store, we offer online package S DPD in different sizes, depending on which design suits you best.

What is Kraftliner?

Kraftliner consists of unbleached or bleached kraft pulp, which has a significant proportion of long fibers. It owes its name to kraft paper, which is the basis for kraft liner. Kraft paper is largely made from primary fibers, i.e. new wood fibers. Recycled fibers make up the smaller portion of the paper. These make up 20 percent of kraftliner. The basis weight of Kraftliner ranges from 120 to 440 g/m². Visually, it is noticeable that the color is somewhat darker than that of other liners. The surface of Kraftliner is also smooth and water-repellent to a certain degree.

What is Testliner?

A Testliner is a short-fiber paper for corrugated board that has predefined strength properties. Testliner usually has a light brown color and a surface with a tactile texture. As a raw material, it has the highest value in the corrugated board industry today and is used in virtually every type of board. Testliner consists entirely of recovered paper. In Germany, it is common to divide testliner into three categories. These are designated T1, T2 and T3. In the case of testliner of the T1 grade, the highest-quality recycled papers are processed. For T2 and T3, correspondingly lower-quality grades are used.
Thanks to this structure of the cardboard box, DPD Parcel S meets all the criteria for being able to be used for secure shipping as well as storage over a long period of time. Despite its stability, the carton is very light. The low weight is an immense advantage, especially for shipping.
Furthermore, the DPD Parcel S is a folding carton according to the FEFCO design. Folding cartons produced according to the FEFCO design consist of one whole piece, with the base and the lid formed by four caps each. The folding cartons are stored and sold lying flat, which saves a lot of space. By pulling the sides apart, you get the typical shape of the DPD Parcel S to fill it with items as desired for your shipment. The FEFCO design represents the classic design for folding cartons suitable for shipping. FEFCO cartons offer the highest level of protection for a small amount of material required. Due to the low material requirement, which comes about because the cardboard box is produced in a single wall, the cardboard box can be offered to the customer at a favorable price-performance ratio. Thus, by choosing the production and the type of cardboard boxes, you can ship your desired items safely and securely with the DPD S parcel.

Dimensions and weight of the shipping-optimized cardboard box

The dimensions of the parcel are the criterion that determines whether it is a shipping box of size XS-(extra small), S-(small), M-(middle) or L-(large). To determine dimensions for the DPD parcel S is very simple, because there are specifications of the shipping service provider. For a DPD Parcel size S, the sum of the sides must not exceed 50 cm. To determine the sum, you add the longest side and the shortest side together. If this sum is 50 cm or less, it is a DPD S parcel.
The maximum weight to be able to send the shipping package varies depending on whether it is picked up at your home or you bring it personally to a parcel store. If you want to send the shipping package to a DPD drop-off point, the shipment may weigh a maximum of 20 kg. If, on the other hand, the shipping box you want to send is picked up at your home, the total parcel may weigh a maximum of 31.5 kg.
Choosing DPD as the shipping service provider for your S Paket also offers you the advantage that it is automatically insured up to a value of 520 euros. This guarantees an uncomplicated and safe shipment. Consequently, you don't have to worry about your shipment getting damaged and you being stuck with the costs.

The postage costs for the DPD parcel size S

The DPD S parcel price is low for the box, but there are still postage costs that you should not forget. If you drop off the box at a parcel store so that it can be shipped from there, the postage costs within Germany are 4.50 euros. If your shipment is picked up at your home, the postage costs are 7.60 Euro. Deviations may occur depending on the delivery location. If DPD is suitable for your parcel, you can choose between different shipping options, for example DPDShop2Shop or DPD-CLASSIC. If you choose DPD-CLASSIC as the most popular shipping option, you can enjoy the benefits of this reliable and convenient shipping service. With DPD-CLASSIC you can ship parcels in Germany and internationally.

Countries within Europe are divided into three different zones. The first zone includes Belgium, Poland and the Netherlands. The standard shipping time is two days at a postage rate of 12 euros. Zone 3 includes, among others, Romania and Ireland. Here, the shipping price is 38 euros with a transit time of three days.
