Types of Dunnage for Interior Packaging

Types of Dunnage for Interior PackagingpackIQ offers several types of dunnage and interior packaging solutions for protecting contact surface, preventing cargos from dislocation, decreasing shocks during navigation, and for preventing damage. All of our dunnage products are designed with the high-quality, cost-effective solutions in mind, and can be customized to the features you need including: material, size, color, shape, and weight. packIQs dunnage is custom designed and constructed, using a variety of traditional materials including:

Foam DunnageCorrugated FiberboardMolded Plastics

Corrugated PlasticSewn BagsVacuum Formed Trays

Foam Dunnage Foam dunnage provides excellent cushioning capabilities and is perfect for your "Class A" products and parts that require scratch resistant and shock protection. In addition, its high energy absorption properties allow it to withstand harsh static and dynamic force. With its excellent energy and protective capabilities, the use of foam packaging inserts can provide significant savings on the high cost of expensive parts being damaged during material handling and transit.Our molded foam is light-weight, and can be custom molded to protect fragile or intricately shaped parts. Each dunnage design can be customized around the exact shape of the individual part. We can design efficient, cost-effective foam dunnage to protect your valuable products and parts during storage and transportation.

Corrugated Fiberboard DunnageCorrugated fiberboard is a paper-based material consisting of a fluted corrugated sheet and one or two flat linerboards which makes their structure strong and flexible. Double and triple-wall corrugated board can also be used for high stacking strength and puncture resistance. Our corrugated systems are ideal for supporting your lean manufacturing initiatives. Containers can be fabricated as a flat one-piece assembly, reducing your space, part numbers and storage costs. When you are ready to ship your parts or products, the kitted assembly is easily converted into your custom corrugated shipping container.Molded Plastic DunnageThe strength, versatility and handling advantages of molded plastic dunnage makes them ideal for safe shipment, storage and handling of delicate and complex parts. Molded plastics can be designed to fit the exact contour of the panel or part, thus providing maximum protection. Best of all, its a very cost-efficient alternative for product protection and material handling.

The key advantage with molded plastics is the dunnage design can be customized to fit your product exactly so that it wont shift during transport. Using the most advanced CAD systems, our engineers can make a precise contoured cavity of your specific product(s) designed to maximize the efficiency of your containers while offering superior protection. packIQs molded plastic dunnage is lightweight, nestable, collapsible, and recyclable. In addition, our molded plastic dunnage is reusable, thereby reducing packaging cost.

Corrugated PlasticCorrugated plastic can serve as a mid-point solution between cardboard and wood in your packaging systems, and is an integral part of reusable packaging. Corrugated plastic is a reusable packaging option that can outperform and outlast traditional cardboard packaging. Additionally, corrugated plastic packaging is more cost effective on a cost-per-trip basis and is 100% recyclable. Cost-per-trip studies show that manufacturers can save up to 70% in normal costs related to packaging when converting from cardboard to reusable corrugated plastic.

Corrugated plastic is easy to score, crease, stitch, nail, staple, fold and drill. Corrugated plastic dunnage inserts and containers can be designed to accommodate a range of packaging solutions where wood or cardboard can be used. This means if you are converting from cardboard to plastic, you dont have to change your process to accommodate a new packaging material design.Sewn Bags for DunnageHanging Bag Rack - Sewn Bags For DunnagepackIQs sewn bags are flexible, durable and versatile which makes them ideal for the storing, shipping or packaging of class "A" surface parts and products from a variety of industries. Our sewn bags can be installed into bulk containers, wooden crates, material handling totes, and custom metal racks.

One of the biggest advantages of sewn fabric bags is the flexibility to design them to integrate in a variety of configurations. Their thin, lightweight material also saves space and reduces packaging costs. Our sewn bags are also reusable and returnable which makes them an economical and reliable means for packaging and protecting your products.

Vacuum Formed TrayspackIQ offers a wide range of custom vacuum formed trays that can be used to hold, organize, protect and transport a variety of products. Our vacuum formed dunnage trays offer a cost-effective solution to store or transport products and components safely and damage free.

Our material handling trays offer numerous options for protecting your products. Made from a number of materials, such as PVC, polystyrene, PETG, as well as various anti-stat and conductive materials, our vacuum formed dunnage trays are available in different sizes, colors and thicknesses and can be customized for many applications such as protective packaging or material handling.

Our vacuum formed trays are available in disposable and re-usable versions. They are used in a number of our customer applications and are ideal for transporting and protecting items such as electronics, industrial and consumer products. Trays can be shaped to fit a particular product with features like indentations and stacking or de-nesting for easy stacking and removal from tight shipping boxes. Our dunnage trays are also lightweight, adding negligible weight to your shipment.

Dunnage is a critical component in material handling applications where part protection and/or storage efficiencies are required whether youre handling automotive parts, aircraft components, or electronic parts. Dunnage protects valuable parts from moisture damage, static, shock, vibrations, and contamination from other debris during transport, assembly and storage and is also suited for use in automated production systems.

Whether you require shock or vibration protection, part separation or specific orientation for class A parts or electrostatic discharge protection, our engineers will translate your job specifications into products that precisely match your material handling needs. Our expertise with foam, vacuum formed trays, corrugated fiberboard, sewn bags, and molded fiberboard can help you specify and deliver the right packaging for your parts, whether you need a single prototype or production quantities.

packIQ offers a variety of dunnage and material handling products for storing and transporting products safely. We will work with you to design and produce innovative packaging solutions that provide part protection while minimizing waste.
