Common use of Packaging and Handling Clause in Contracts

Packaging and Handling. It will be obvious that in certain circumstances, the packaging of cables e.g. large heavy drums, sharp edges of metal components of cables could constitute a safety hazard and individuals should therefore take due care for their own safety when handling these items. The springing of the steel binding straps or the dangers arising from projecting nails used to retain battens around the drums or containers are particular examples to which the Supplier would draw the Customer’s attention.
