The Challenge: Amazon's Rules Are Non-Negotiable
Selling on Amazon provides access to a massive global market, but it comes with strict, non-negotiable packaging requirements. Failure to meet their standards can result in significant per-unit chargebacks, suppressed listings, or even the removal of your product. To succeed, you must prove your packaging is not only durable enough to survive Amazon’s complex supply chain but also easy for the customer to open.
Navigating Amazon's Certification Tiers
We are certified to test and validate your packaging for all of Amazon’s primary programs. Our experts will help you determine the right tier for your product.
- Tier 1: Frustration-Free Packaging (FFP): The highest level of certification. We test to ensure your package is fully recyclable, easy to open, and durable enough to ship without an additional Amazon overbox.
- Tier 2: Ships-in-Own-Container (SIOC): For products that can safely ship in their own branded box without an Amazon overbox. We validate that your package can withstand the journey and protect the product inside.
- Tier 3: Prep-Free Packaging (PFP): For products that are too small or otherwise require an Amazon overbox, but are packaged to require no additional prep work (like bagging or bubble wrap) from Amazon, saving you time and potential fees.
