What is a Dunnage?

Dunnage refers to high-strength materials used to separate and protect goods in transportation.

It is commonly used in the shipping industry to create space between goods and provide support during transportation. Dunnage can be made of various materials, including wood, foam, and plastic. The primary function of dunnage is to prevent damage to freight during transit by providing cushioning, separation, and protection.
