Foam packaging is a protective material used to cushion and safeguard products during shipping and handling. It is lightweight, durable, and often made from materials like polyethylene or polyurethane. This type of packaging helps prevent damage from impacts, vibrations, and moisture, making it ideal for fragile items such as electronics and glassware. Common forms of foam packaging include foam inserts, peanuts, and sheets. These materials can be molded to fit specific products, ensuring a snug fit. Foam packaging is also recyclable in some cases, contributing to more sustainable shipping practices while providing effective protection for goods.
