Bulk packing granules
Foam Cube Granules (EPS Cubes)
Foam cube pellets (also known as EPS cubes) are designed to provide maximum protection for heavier goods. These granules have a unique property - they bond together, forming a strong layer that protects the contents of the package from movement and impacts during transportation.
Advantages:
- High protection quality: The cube-shaped granules effectively absorb impacts, making them particularly suitable for heavy and fragile items.
- Solid layer: The cube shape allows the granules to bond with each other, ensuring that the products do not slide and remain stable inside the package.
- Durability: The granules do not compress and do not lose their shape, even under heavy loads.
Disadvantages:
- Non-biodegradable: Since these pellets are made of foam, they are not biodegradable.
- Environmental impact: Despite its durability, foam can cause environmental pollution problems if the pellets are not reused or disposed of properly.
Foam pellets are especially suitable for businesses that ship heavier items such as metal, glass or electrical appliances. Thanks to their resistance and shape stability, these pellets ensure the safety of goods even during longer transport journeys.
Starch Granules: The Organic Choice
Starch pellets are a great choice for those looking for a sustainable and environmentally friendly packaging solution. These pellets are made from natural, biodegradable materials, so after use they can simply be thrown in the compost bin or dissolved in water.
Advantages:
- Environmental friendliness: Starch granules are completely biodegradable, which means that they do not leave any negative impact on the environment.
- Lightness: These pellets are ideal for packaging lighter goods as they provide adequate protection without adding extra weight.
- Convenient disposal: The pellets can be easily thrown away or dissolved in water, making them particularly convenient for use both at home and in business.
Disadvantages:
- Limited quality of protection: Starch granules are not as strong as foam, so they are more suitable for light and non-damaging items.
- Lack of Resilience: These pellets can lose their shape under heavy weight or pressure.
Starch pellets are particularly suitable for businesses that want to demonstrate their environmental responsibility, or for household users who ship lighter items such as clothing, small accessories or handicrafts.
