Online shopping is very common nowadays and we always think of receiving our products safely. Foam and plastic are used for fragile products but they are not eco-friendly or reliable. Custom molded pulp inserts are the best option because they are made up of natural fibers, absorb shock, and are lightweight. Cosmetics, electronics, glass, bottles, and food items can be delivered very safely with these pulp inserts. Here are some qualities that make them reliable over plastics and foam. Let’s get started!
Cushioning and shock Absorption
The custom-molded pulp inserts can absorb any jerk, shock, and heavy Impacts, which can damage the product while shipping. Custom molded pulp inserts have a good grip and are made of cellulose fibers like bagasse pulp, bamboo, and recycled paper, and they are earth-friendly. On the other hand, traditional plastic and foam packaging is made of toxic chemicals and is destructive to the environment.
Custom molded pulp inserts have a network of flexible fibers that contain air pockets, which spread the hitting force over a wider area and can save the product from any damage. Studies show that custom-molded pulp can absorb 25kg of impact per unit area. Another research shows that it can absorb 60 to 70 percent of force, which reduces the risk of damaging the product while shipping.
Perfect Fit for Secure Packaging
Custom molded pulp inserts are highly effective in packaging so that the product can snugly fit in the box. There is no hollow space, so the product can’t move in the box and which prevents the risk of denting, scratches, or breakage. They are made according to the size and dimensions of the product by a process called molding.
For some products like electronics or glassware, we recommend custom molded pulp inserts without hesitation. Because even a minor strike could damage them. Their perfect fit not only confirm the security of the product but also provide a fabulous unboxing experience.
High Compressive Strength & Lightweight
Custom molded pulp inserts are light in weight because they are made up of renewable resources like bamboo, bagasse, and at the same time, they are resilient and reliable. Their multi-directional, interlocking network of cellulose fibers makes them very strong, which can absorb any Impact or shock while in transportation.
Using custom molded pulp inserts is lightweight and can cut loss in weight while shipping the product. Molded pulp packaging is strong and eco-friendly compared to plastic and foam packaging. It also provides a premium look for customers; on the other hand, plastic and foam packaging are not eco-friendly and give an ordinary industrial look.
Scratch and Moisture Resistance
Custom molded pulp inserts are valuable in preventing scratches and also saving the product from humidity and moisture. They have a silky surface and ideal cushioning, which prevents unnecessary scratches and dents while shipping. Because of the custom molded pulp, the product is packed tightly, and it is snug in the box, which helps in preventing damage.
There is a plant-based waterproof coating, which makes these moisture-resistant and humidity-free. These are excellent at resisting humidity and moisture because of their compressed cellulose fiber structure. Industries like food, cosmetics, and children’s products. These pulps are a smart choice for shipping products in a humidity-free, secure atmosphere.
Eco-Friendly and Non-Toxic Design
Custom molded pulp inserts are environmentally friendly and made of green, eco-friendly materials like bamboo, bagass pulp. The custom molded pulp inserts naturally dissolve in soil and do not release toxic chemicals when decomposed. On the other hand, plastic and foam packaging are made up of toxic chemicals, and they remain in the world’s waste for centuries and releasing toxic gases when dismantled or burned.
The pulp inserts are especially considered the best choice for shipping products like food, cosmetics, and especially packing children’s products. These custom molded inserts are not only good for products but also for human beings. They can be cost-effective, especially for large-volume orders due to optimized manufacturing cycles and reduced machine setup times per unit.
Pulp inserts vs Foam and Plastic
Custom molded pulp inserts are a game-changer for the long run because they clear all the environmental regulations. On the other hand, plastic and foam packaging are made up of harmful materials. They are destructive to the environment, and most countries are taking strict action against plastic and foam products. Molded pulp inserts are made as per the design length and width of the product so that the product snugly fits in the box and reduces the risk of damage.
On the other hand, foam and plastic are not flexible and their fitting is not good, so the product can move in the box, which increases the risk of damage, dent, or breakage. These pulps can decompose in nature without releasing any toxic side effects on the other hand, plastic and foam packaging can not decompose for centuries, which increases world pollution.
