Using Foam Corner Pads To Protect Shipped Goods

When it comes to shipping goods from one corner of the world to another, proper packing is a vital measure for peace of mind. Everyone wants the package to arrive at its destination undamaged but the truth is, most of us don't really take the time to pack our items properly prior to shipping. That’s why there are so many cases of goods getting damaged during transit.

The Corners Are The Most Vulnerable

Not long ago, we had a customer that had a very unpleasant experience with sending a very expensive framed painting to one of his customers who lived in Canada. He is an art collector and he told us that before he found us, he tried to get away with a “homemade” packing solution for the paintings he was shipping. That all changed after this particular experience. A week after sending the painting to Canada, he received an email from the customer stating they were very disappointed about the damage and that the painting was not packed properly! They said that the corners and side of the painting were damaged in transit and the 100 year old frame was now ruined. The end customer was so upset that he had to provide a refund, as well as cover the return shipping costs from Canada.

Since that time, our customer now takes the right steps to make sure something like this doesn’t happen again. After researching online, he found out that shipping framed paintings safely can be easily done by using EPS foam corner pads and that is how he found us. Obviously, we were happy to help him implement this better packing method.

Effectively Protect Any Item With 90 Degree Edges

Corner pads can be effectively used in order to protect any item with ninety degree edges. What makes them so special and effective at protecting your goods is the fact that they provide superior cushioning characteristics and are easy to use. EPS foam pads also offer a cost-effective alternative to custom designed packing and given the fact new shapes and sizes are continually being added, they make for a great choice for anyone who wants to ship or move fragile items safely anywhere in the world.


The Main Benefits of EPS Foam Corner Pads:

1. Maximum protection
2. Low cost
3. Simplicity of use
4. Versatility
5. Lightweight



On a daily basis, people ship millions of packages to all corners of the world and many of them arrive at their destination partially or totally damaged. If you want to have the peace of mind your fragile items won't share the same fate, then make sure to use our EPS Foam Corner Pads.
