What Are Paper Corner Boards and What Are They Used For?

  • by

Paper corner boards β€” also known as edge protectors, corner protectors, paper angles or edge boards β€” are L-shaped or U-shaped strips made from laminated kraft paper and paper-tube board, pressed into shape on a specialised corner-board machine.

What they are used for

  • Protecting cargo edges β€” absorb impact and stop edges being crushed in transit.
  • Reinforcing stacked cartons β€” add vertical strength so stacks do not deform or collapse.
  • Unitising pallet loads β€” work with the pallet to hold the whole load square and prevent tilting.
  • Cushioning β€” buffer vulnerable edges, faces and corners of the product itself.
  • Strapping protection β€” stop PET/steel banding from cutting into the goods.

Because they are 100% paper, they are recyclable, need no fumigation and can be exported with the goods as-is.
