Introduction: Packaging That Protects, Promotes, and Performs
The global furniture industry demands packaging that protects, promotes, and performs across thousands of miles of transportation. Every desk, chair, and premium wooden piece must survive stacking pressure, impacts, vibration, and climate variations—while still arriving in perfect condition for the end customer.
At New Edge, we design packaging as an engineered system, not just a cover.Our 3-layer protective solution—combining:
✅ Honeycomb face covers
✅ EPE foam corner guards
✅ Customized carton boxes
—has been drop-tested and proven to deliver superior protection for international shipments.With over two decades of expertise, advanced manufacturing, and a customer-centric approach, New Edge ensures OEM brands ship safer, smarter, and greener.
1. The Challenge of Continent-to-Continent Furniture Shipping
Furniture packaging must address multiple threats:
✅ Stacking pressure causing dents and warping.
✅ Impact damage from drops, forklift mishandling, and rough transit.
✅Friction and scratches that ruin delicate coatings.
✅ Humidity and climate changes affecting material integrity.
Traditional packaging often fails in at least one of these areas. New Edge’s system addresses all four, ensuring products arrive in showroom condition.
2. The Core Materials Behind Our Success
🟡 2.1 Honeycomb Board – Structural Strength Inspired by Nature
Honeycomb board is crafted from kraft paper with a hexagonal cell core. It offers a superior strength-to-weight ratio, making it ideal for handling heavy stacking loads during container shipping.
Property | Description | Why OEM Buyers Choose It |
Compressive Strength | Handles high loads without deformation | Prevents dents under stacked cargo |
Weight | Extremely lightweight | Reduces shipping costs |
Eco-Friendliness | 100% recyclable kraft paper | Meets sustainability regulations |
Customization | Easy to die-cut and fold | Fits various furniture surfaces |
Cost Efficiency | High protection at low material cost | Excellent performance-to-cost ratio |
In application:New Edge honeycomb face covers wrap furniture tops and seats, distributing pressure evenly to prevent warping under extreme loads.
🔵 2.2 EPE Foam – The Ultimate Shock Absorber
Expanded Polyethylene (EPE) is a flexible, elastic foam known for its ability to absorb energy and resist impact.
Property | Description | Why OEM Buyers Choose It |
Shock Absorption | Compresses and recovers during impacts | Protects corners and edges from cracks |
Surface Protection | Soft, scratch-resistant surface | Keeps finishes pristine |
Moisture Resistance | Semi-closed cells block humidity | Ideal for sea freight and humid climates |
Reusability | Can be reused multiple times | Adds sustainability value |
Lightweight | Minimal additional weight | Keeps logistics costs low |
In application:Our CNC-cut EPE corner guards fit perfectly on desk edges and chair legs, preventing impact damage during drops or rough handling.
3. Hybrid Protection: Honeycomb + EPE = Total Security
While honeycomb resists compressive loads, EPE absorbs dynamic shocks.Together, they form a dual-layer protective shield that:
✅ Distributes forces evenly
✅ Prevents edge & surface damage
✅ Ensures flawless arrival
4. The Third Layer: Custom Carton Engineering
The final layer is a high-burst-strength carton designed to integrate perfectly with honeycomb and EPE components.
🔸 Tight internal fit to prevent movement
🔸 Premium printing to reinforce brand value
🔸 Durable corrugated board to resist stacking
5. Drop-Test Excellence: Proof of Reliability
At New Edge, quality is proven, not claimed.We conduct rigorous ISO drop tests for both separate components and the complete packaging system.
Test Type | Purpose | Result with New Edge Packaging |
Component Drop Test | Tests EPE & honeycomb individually | Zero cracks or deformation |
Full Packaging Test | Simulates real-world mishandling, 1.2m drops | Packaging intact; furniture flawless |
These tests simulate continent-to-continent shipping, ensuring fewer damage claims and higher customer satisfaction.
