Compressibility
Handle compressible products
Last updated 17 May 2024
At Skrym, we enhance the efficiency of shipping textiles by optimizing space with adjustable compressibility factors, reducing air and ensuring efficient transit. πΏπ¦
Configuring Compressibility for Products:
π‘οΈ To configure the compressibility factors, follow these two essential steps:
-
Tag the compressible product as a textile π When inserting products, tag the compressible products as textiles to enable the compressibility feature. This can be done by setting the
type
in thefamily
field totextile
. -
Assign an appropriate compression factor π Next, add the compressibility factor to the product by setting the
volumeCompressionFactor
field in thefamily
object. This factor is a decimal value in the range(-1.0, 1.0)
. An appropriate value for the compression factor can be determined based on the table below,
Compression Factor | Compressibility |
---|---|
-1 | Incompressible |
Less than 0 but greater than -1 | Low compressibility |
0 up to and including 1 | High compressibility |
