Paper Cushioning Sustainable Custom Packaging Solutions

In the evolving landscape of eco-conscious packaging, paper cushioning has emerged as a leading sustainable alternative to traditional plastic-based fillers. Designed to protect products during transit, paper cushioning offers high-performance protection for the environmentally conscious consumer.

What is Paper Cushioning?

Paper cushioning refers to specially engineered paper formed into pads, crumples, or wraps to absorb shock and prevent product damage. Signode provides custom paper-cushioning solutions developed at its design center in Danville, VA.
