Storage & logistics
For wholesale buyers, proper storage of remanufactured turbos is essential to maintain their condition until installation. Units should be kept in a climate-controlled environment, away from moisture and direct sunlight, to prevent corrosion or seal degradation. Inventory rotation is critical to avoid stockpiling obsolete models, with first-in-first-out (FIFO) systems recommended for garages and distributors. Regular inspections of packaging integrity are advised to ensure no damage occurs during handling or transit.
