折り曲げ厳禁!


Explanation:
折り曲げ厳禁!(Orimage Genkin!)

折り曲げ(Orimage): bend
厳禁(Genkin): prohibited

If you can't write Chinese character on the package, I recommend you to write with Roman character, "ORANAIDE-KUDASAI!"

ORANAIDE-KUDASAI = Please do not bend.

If you need image file of the characters, I can send you via e-mail.

I hope this helps.
