Abacus Freight
About this Product
Abacus units require careful shipping to prevent damage. Fragile items must be individually wrapped in protective padding, such as bubble wrap or foam, and placed on clean, dry surfaces. Avoid direct sunlight and ensure proper ventilation to maintain product integrity. Storage conditions must include dry, dust-free environments with adequate clearance for handling.
