Our Kraft square and rectangular tubing is custom-designed to provide carton support during shipment and stacking. Specifically, it gives you ...

• a package that's stronger than wood but lighter than foam
• rails and spacers to separate products and limit their movement during shipping
• high-strength beams to prevent package buckling during transit
• a packing system that eliminates the need for expensive additional support materials such as wood, foam, or straps
• 100% recyclable and biodegradable materials; cost-effective alternatives to wood, foam, and metals

The tubes can be used as corner posts inside corrugated cartons to ensure crush-resistant strength. Or they can be placed along the inside perimeter of the carton to secure products from shifting and getting damaged during transit. Result? You've got a protective packaging system that's ideal for shipping high-value items.
