Utility across packaging types

Honeycomb packaging is used for all types of materials, at small scale or large scale, and bulk packaging can be handled efficiently with it. It has a wide range of applications and is used worldwide as a safe packaging option.

Humidity resistance

Kraft paper is usually coated with PE film, which makes the packaging humidity resistant. Weather conditions and humidity levels are then less of a concern in storage and transport.

Compression resistance

It is a strong packaging that cannot be suppressed easily under vertical compression, because of its structure.

Light weight with high strength

Honeycomb packaging is easy to handle and carry, and can be used with anything from clothes to generators.

Recyclability

It can be recycled, which makes it a more eco-friendly option than other packaging, and it can be reused effectively at an affordable price.

Multi-purpose usage

Beyond protection it is used for display racks, shoe boxes, arts and crafts, and it is one of the most widely used packaging options worldwide.

Where it is applied

By industry it is used in consumer goods, food and beverages, furniture packaging, logistics packaging and industrial goods.
