Paper corner protectors are made by laminating multiple pieces of kraft paper and shaping and pressing them with a corner protector. They mainly come in L and U shapes. After being used for stacking goods, it can strengthen the edge support of packaging materials and protect their overall packaging strength. It belongs to green and environmentally friendly packaging materials and can replace wood for 100% recycling and reuse.
The global low-carbon and environmental storm has already affected the packaging industry, and the concept of low-carbon packaging has been proposed. The main contents of low-carbon packaging include lightweight packaging, clean production, green products, energy conservation and emission reduction, and replacing wood with paper. Replacing wood with paper is the core of low-carbon packaging. The recycling of waste paper not only reduces the amount of wood used, reduces deforestation, protects the ecological environment, but also saves energy, water, and emissions. According to calculations, using waste paper to produce 1 ton of paper can save 5 cubic meters of wood, 60 cubic meters of water, and 300 kilowatt hours. Paper corner protectors, as a new material for edge, corner, top, and bottom protection packaging, have opened up a new path of "container free packaging". All kinds of goods that only need to protect their edges and corners and do not need to be contained as a whole are greatly benefited and more energy-efficient and environmentally friendly.
Main advantages
1. Paper corner protectors can bundle products together to make the overall packaging more solid and sturdy.
2. Fixing the goods on the pallet can protect the product and its edges.
3. It can protect and support the product during transportation.
4. Tailored according to different specifications and requirements of customers. It can serve as a reinforcement tray during the transportation of goods, thereby avoiding damage to the edges and corners of the goods during handling, packing, and transportation. Its material is made of laminated cardboard adhesive, so it can be recycled and reused. And it can be used in export containers without fumigation, saving costs and being widely used.
5. Provide sturdy packaging for pallet transportation: Paper corner protectors can provide edge protection for any goods loaded on pallets. They are used in conjunction with strapping (or box film) to make loose and fragmented cardboard boxes, sheets, metal tubes, electronic components, and other items a solid whole, preventing goods from tilting or collapsing. Another major advantage of paper corner protectors is that they are very convenient to unpack, as long as you cut the packing tape or box film.
6. Preventing external damage: If paper corner protectors are used only to protect the surface and do not require reinforcement, a thickness of 3mm is sufficient, and their size can be determined according to the size of the corner protectors. To reduce costs, some small corner protectors can also be used to protect the damaged edges due to tight packing tape.
7. Increasing the stacking pressure of cardboard boxes: Placing paper corner protectors at the four corners of the cardboard boxes can enhance their stacking strength, provide cushioning when subjected to external impacts, and stack the cardboard boxes together without squeezing the contents inside.
