In the realm of logistics and goods transportation, the integrity of packaging is paramount. Ensuring that products arrive in perfect condition is a top priority, and this is where corner and edge protectors become indispensable. At Packsys, we understand their critical role in packaging and are here to shed light on their benefits and applications.
What are Corner and Edge Protectors?
Corner and edge protectors, also known as cornerboards, are designed to shield the corners and edges of products on pallets during transport. Constructed from reinforced paper, these protectors prevent damage and stabilize loads to prevent shifting during transit. A standout feature of these protectors is their eco-friendliness; they are made from recyclable and renewable materials, making them a sustainable packaging choice. Their lightweight and user-friendly design also make them an economical and practical option for effective packaging.
