They have the same cushioning properties due to the material's resilience.<\/p>\n<p>Polyethylene foam is actually an ideal material for the inner packaging used to transport sensitive components. It optimally absorbs shocks that occur during parcel shipping, as the material then straightens up again and returns to its original shape. At the same time, it fixes the packaged goods in the outer carton. However, there is one catch: <strong>Foam is not sustainable.<\/strong> However, this is increasingly being demanded by customers - both in the B2C and B2B sectors.<\/p>\n<h2>Cardboard pads protect sensitive devices<\/h2>\n<p>For the company ADVA, a provider of telecommunications equipment for fibre optic-based mobile data transmission technology, developed <a href=\"https:\/\/packaging-journal.de\/?s=kn%C3%BCppel\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" data-schema-attribute=\"\">Billet<\/a> therefore a folding packaging made of corrugated cardboard <strong>with multilayer elasticated cardboard padding glued to the inside<\/strong> to house the company's sensitive equipment.
