Paper Cushion Machine
Paper cushion machine produces lightweight but extremely strong paper cushions on demand at 30 m per minute. The machine converts flat paper rolls into fully inflated void fill that protects goods during transit without occupying warehouse space. Each cushion is sealed and inflated in a single pass, so no pre-formed fill is needed and no manual cutting is required.
- Produces paper cushions on demand so pre-formed void fill does not take up warehouse space
- Inflates cushions at 30 m per minute, matching the speed of a manual packing line
- Cushions are strong enough to protect fragile items during long-distance shipping
- Uses only flat paper rolls, so storage and handling are simpler than with foam or plastic
Include the carton size and the monthly volume and the reply will contain a format recommendation, not just a price.

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.
| Hand-cut paper inserts | Machine produces consistent cushions at 30 m per minute, eliminating variation and saving time |
|---|---|
| Pre-formed paper void fill | No storage space is used for pre-made cushions, and only the needed amount is produced |
| Foam or plastic void fill | Paper cushions are lighter and fully recyclable, reducing environmental impact and freight costs |
| Manual inflation of air pillows | Machine automates the inflation and sealing process, reducing labour and error rate |
How to Use It
Place the paper roll onto the machine and thread the paper through the guide rollers
Set the desired cushion length using the control panel, between 25 cm and 999 cm
Turn on the machine and allow it to warm up before starting production
Test a short length to confirm the seal is strong and the cushion inflates correctly
Place the inflated cushion into the carton, positioning it around the product and filling the void
