Honeycomb Paper
Honeycomb paper is a continuous roll of corrugated kraft paper that forms a rigid, lightweight structure when unrolled. It wraps around fragile items to absorb shock and prevent movement during transit. Made entirely from kraft paper, it is recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable, offering a fully eco-friendly alternative to plastic void fill. The paper is dispensed on demand at the packing bench, so it does not occupy warehouse space when not in use.
- Rolls ship flat and take minimal storage space compared to pre-formed packaging
- Fully recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable—meets strict environmental standards
- Lightweight structure reduces packed weight and cuts dimensional freight costs
- Dispensed on demand so no over-packaging or wasted material

Key Benefits
- Rolls ship flat and take minimal storage space compared to pre-formed packaging
- Fully recyclable, biodegradable, and compostable—meets strict environmental standards
- Lightweight structure reduces packed weight and cuts dimensional freight costs
- Dispensed on demand so no over-packaging or wasted material
- Protects fragile items without adding plastic or synthetic materials
- Easy to use dispenser system reduces packing time and labour
Where It Is Used
- Wrapping glass bottles or jars in e-commerce fulfilment centres
- Protecting ceramic tiles or homeware during export shipping
- Cushioning electronics and small appliances in retail packaging
- Securing cosmetics and skincare products in mixed-shipment cartons
- Filling voids around irregularly shaped items in export FCL and LCL containers
Who It Is For
- E-commerce fulfilment centres needing plastic-free packaging for customer delivery
- Exporters shipping fragile goods to Europe, North America, and Asia with sustainability requirements
- Third-party logistics warehouses replacing plastic void fill with compostable alternatives
- Manufacturers of ceramics, cosmetics, and electronics seeking eco-friendly packaging
- Contract packers replacing foam and plastic inserts with a paper-based solution
Problems It Solves
- Plastic void fill creates waste that cannot be recycled or composted
- Pre-formed plastic inserts take up warehouse space and require inventory management
- Over-packaging with plastic increases freight costs due to dimensional weight
- Buyers face regulatory pressure to reduce plastic in packaging
- Manual wrapping of paper or foam slows down packing lines and varies in consistency

How It Is Made
Kraft paper fed into a corrugation machine to form the honeycomb pattern
Rolling the corrugated paper into a continuous roll with consistent spacing
Cutting to the ordered width and length before winding
Rolls wound to standard lengths and checked for uniformity
Final inspection before packing into export cartons
How It Is Checked
Incoming kraft paper checked for purity and absence of recycled content
Corrugation pattern verified for consistent cell size and alignment
Rolls tested for structural integrity and resistance to compression
Final roll length and width confirmed before packing
Cartons inspected at container loading against the packing list
Customisation Options
- Custom roll widths to match your packaging line or carton size
- Custom roll lengths to match your daily packing volume
- Optional printing of brand logo or instructions on the roll

How It Compares With the Alternatives
Where another material is the better answer we say so, because a returned shipment costs more than a lost order.
| Plastic air pillows | Honeycomb paper is fully compostable and does not leave plastic waste, though it offers less cushioning than inflated air |
|---|---|
| Foam inserts | Paper is recyclable and compostable, but foam provides more impact resistance for very heavy items |
| Bubble wrap | Honeycomb paper is stiffer and better at blocking lateral movement, though bubble wrap offers more compression resistance |
| Paper padding sheets | Honeycomb paper has a structured shape that resists flattening under load, unlike loose paper padding |
How to Use It
Mount the roll on a dispenser stand or bench-mounted holder
Pull the paper out and wrap it around the fragile item, securing the ends with tape or adhesive
Adjust the tension to ensure the honeycomb structure remains intact
Use the dispenser to cut the paper cleanly after wrapping
Store unused rolls flat and away from moisture and direct sunlight
