What our factory can make
For fragile products, our factory focuses on product positioning and impact protection. Send us the product photo, size, weight, quantity per box and carton size. We can design EPE foam compartments, bottle slots, bowl trays, side pads or a combined protective structure for sampling.
- Custom EPE foam inserts for ceramic bowls, cups, plates and tableware sets.
- Bottle and glassware foam slots that separate fragile products during transport.
- Top cover pads, bottom pads and side protection for export cartons.
- Black EPE foam inserts for gift boxes when presentation is important.
- Sample production before bulk fragile-product packaging orders.
The main risk is movement inside the carton
A strong outer carton is not enough if the product can move inside it. Movement creates rubbing, edge impact and pressure at fragile points. A custom EPE foam insert helps hold each item in place and creates a cushioning distance between products and the carton wall.
For ceramic bowls, cups, bottles and glass products, the insert must match the product shape closely enough to prevent impact, while still allowing workers or customers to remove the product without damage.
- Separate fragile items so they do not hit each other.
- Support round or uneven shapes with matching cutouts.
- Add top and bottom cushioning where vertical pressure is a risk.
- Use a sample to confirm fit before bulk export packaging.
Common structures for fragile product packaging
Fragile products may use a bottom tray, a top cover layer, side pads, corner guards or a full slotted insert. The right structure depends on product shape, carton size, shipping distance and how the product is displayed when opened.
For gift boxes, appearance matters more. Black EPE foam or a cleaner shaped insert may improve presentation. For export cartons, protection and packing speed are usually more important than decorative effect.
| Product type | Common EPE foam structure |
|---|---|
| Ceramic bowls and cups | Separated slots with side cushioning |
| Glass bottles | Round cutouts, neck support and top layer |
| Gift sets | Clean insert layout with presentation focus |
| Instruments | Positioning insert plus edge support |
