Paper-based packaging system

March 8, 2014

the Hexacomb HexStack paper-based packaging systemUsed to transport larger-sized liquid bottles, the Hexacomb HexStack paper-based packaging system features a single layer of honeycomb material custom die-cut to accommodate the specific bottle neck. The pad is laid on top of a layer of bottles, with the closures and necks inserted into the die cuts. Each die-cut orifice surrounds the bottle neck and rests on the shoulder, immobilizing the container. A secondary process can die-cut a shallower, wider circular channel under the hole to accommodate an optional carrying handle ring. The pads are made primarily from renewable wood fibers, contain recycled content and are recyclable in corrugated recycling streams.
