Box corner pressure damage brief

Operational signals that show whether figure box damage is being caused by pre-dispatch condition misses, poor protector fit, or transit pressure after handoff.

Claim

Collector box-condition protection is stronger when teams record the starting box grade, the chosen protection method, and where corner pressure first appeared in the proof trail.

Starting box grade: Pre-pack corner, window, and seal condition

A starting grade is the baseline that separates existing cosmetic flaws from later handling damage.

Protection-fit signal: Whether soft wrap or the rigid protector added edge pressure before sealing

Damage can come from the protection method itself if corner clearance or fit was never checked.

First visible pressure point: The earliest proof image showing corner crush, denting, or window-panel stress

Teams need to know whether the damage appeared before handoff or only after carrier transit began.

Operational implication

Teams should log the starting box grade, protector-fit check, and first visible pressure point together so collector-condition complaints can be traced to the true failure step.
