Storage & logistics
For B2B buyers, proper storage of exchange-standard turbos is critical to maintaining their condition until installation. Store units in a climate-controlled facility, away from direct sunlight and humidity, to prevent corrosion or seal degradation. Bulk boxes should be stacked on pallets to avoid crushing, and individual units should remain sealed until use to preserve their remanufactured state. Regular inventory rotation ensures older stock is used first, reducing the risk of performance degradation over time.
