  • Final packaging is 100% recyclable

Performance

  • Excellent bracing, blocking and cushioning protection
  • Unaffected by extreme temperatures
  • Water resistant
  • Electrically neutral

Economic

  • Inexpensive and stable raw material sources
  • Affordable new development costs
  • Designed to nest for reduced shipping and storage costs
  • Formed to shape –- no assembly required
