Paper Cushioning
Paper cushioning is a reliable and eco-friendly packaging solution designed to protect goods during storage and transit. Ideal for void filling and wrapping, paper cushioning helps prevent movement inside containers and reduces the risk of damage to products during delivery.
Our paper cushioning is a cost-effective alternative to plastic-based void fill options such as Bubble Film Packaging, and it offers excellent protection whilst supporting sustainable packaging goals. It is used for a wide range of industries, including eCommerce, retail and manufacturing.

Uses of Paper Cushioning
Paper cushioning is widely used to protect and secure items during transport by filling any empty spaces within cardboard boxes and containers. This prevents products from shifting and colliding during transport, reducing the risk of damage caused by impact, shock or vibrations.
Paper cushioning is suitable for a wide range of products and is particularly effective for fragile, delicate or unusually shaped items. It can be used to wrap products directly or to create a protective barrier around goods, helping to absorb shocks and keep items stable throughout delivery.
If you require additional stability, paper cushioning can be combined with other packing solutions, such as Bubble Film Packaging, offering extra reinforcement for heavier loads or long-distance transportation.
Environmental Impact
Is it recyclable?
Paper cushioning can be easily recycled and reused. It can usually be disposed of through standard paper and cardboard recycling methods for your local area.
Is it reusable?
Paper cushioning is reusable as long as it hasn’t been heavily compressed, torn or gotten wet during use.
Is it made from toxic materials?
Paper cushioning is typically produced from natural paper fibres and is harmless. Many paper cushioning products are made from recycled paper, making it both safe and sustainable.

Yes, paper cushioning is ideal for fragile items. It provides excellent shock absorption and can be wrapped around products or packed tightly into void spaces.
