Use High-Quality Packaging<\/strong><br \/>\nChoose insulated boxes, gel packs, or dry ice based on the product\u2019s needs to ensure consistent temperatures during transit. Packaging should protect against external temperatures, especially given Malaysia\u2019s hot climate.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>3.
