Edge Protection Solutions: Stronger Corners, Safer Shipments

What Are Edge Protectors and Why They're Valuable

Edge protectors are sturdy packaging materials—typically made from cardboard, plastic, or composite materials—designed to reinforce the corners and edges of palletized or boxed products during storage and transit. They help prevent damage from strapping tension, impact, and stacking pressure, ensuring products arrive in excellent condition. Edge protectors also stabilize loads, making them easier and safer to handle with forklifts or pallet jacks. Their value lies in minimizing product loss, improving load integrity, and reducing customer complaints due to damaged goods.

Key Benefits of Using Edge Protectors:

• Product Protection: Shields edges from crushing, denting, and abrasion.

• Load Stability: Keeps palletized products tightly secured during transport.

• Strap and Stretch Film Reinforcement: Distributes pressure evenly to prevent cutting into boxes or damaging products.

• Cost Savings: Reduces returns, damage claims, and waste.

• Stacking Strength: Increases the vertical strength of pallet loads for safer, more efficient storage.

• Custom Sizing: Available in various lengths, thicknesses, and materials to suit different applications.

• Sustainability: Many options are recyclable and made from recycled content.
