Loading products into containers must be such that the products are not in direct contact with the walls and floor of the transport vehicle. This is done to reduce the occurrence of perpidahan heat from the outside environment. The use of cardboard box pallet guard is not in direct contact with the floor, while setting the load by putting them at the center, leaving the insulation in the form of air space between the cargo to the outer wall.
According Prambudi (2013) the most important requirements of the Cardboard Box as the packaging is the capacity (containability) and the ability to be stacked (stacking strength). Preparation Method pile cardboard box is an important factor that must be understood to be able to maintain material that is packed with space and power efficiency of use of optimum packing. In preparation of the cardboard box, packing the bottom should be able to withstand the load of heavy boxes that exist on it.
Cardboard box harusdapat serves as a protective and when stacked should not be dented or deformed. Some cardboard boxes arranged straight where the walls meet each carton has the power of the most good, otherwise if we draw up carelessly then the power can be reduced by up to 30% .This happened because of the construction of a cardboard box is generally made with flute vertical direction (up).
At the time of flute stand functions as a pillar or column in building a carton. If the rows are mutually flute ride on the pole below it then this arrangement will have maximum strength. Conversely, if the composition of the carton is not straight then the poles are not resting on the columns underneath.

In addition to the above susunanseperti models are also models interlock arrangement. Model interlock arrangement is the arrangement of interlocking cardboard box with the hope that the stack is not easy to collapse. Piles of cardboard models like this wall is not resting on the upper wall of the cardboard box underneath. Consequently bekurang strength can pile up to 40%.

When piling box, make sure all boxes are aligned properly. If possible, stack the container so that the corner of the box and pallet corner was met. Pallets are used as foundation piles must have the appropriate size. The larger size will reduce the efficiency of the room. Meanwhile, when the use of wooden pallets as the foundation memilikiukuran smaller than the size of the arrangement will result in cardboard box cardboard box outer wall is not riding on pallets and hanging. This arrangement will reduce the strength of pile up to 30%.
