This isn't a new thing! When I worked in an electronics factory over 20
years ago, I did a stint in the stores. packing directions indicated the
required box size, packing materials & labelling for different things.
The driver for the courier company used to load the parcels into the 6
metre long van according to the labelling. If it was labelled 'fragile'
it was allowed to hit the back of the cab on the full. Lesser labelling
was allowed to bounce before hitting the wall...
