2.2 The unloading of delivered textile materials

Textile materials may be delivered by a transport company, a customer, or textile good
producer. Mail service may be used for express delivery. The materials are transported
in covers for protection against dirt, water, or other forms of damage. Fabric rolls are
usually packed in plastic bags (see Fig. 2.2) and cardboard covers and auxiliary ma-
terials in cardboard boxes. The producer's marking must be fixed to every package.
It should include the following information: the article code and colour number; the
number of a production batch; the weight, footage, and transportation terms; and the
producer's address. The following information on received materials must be provided
in shipping documents: the types of material; their codes, weight, and cubic capacity;
the number of packages; and the total amount of all shipped packages.
In the presence of the transporter's representative (usually a truck driver), the total
number of all packages recorded in the shipping documents must be compared with
the packages actually received. It is the responsibility of the shipping company to
ensure that all packages are delivered in good order (undamaged and unopened) as
