There are many types of protective packaging available, including polystyrene, cardboard, and moulded fibre pulp. However, the differences and benefits of these materials are not always clear. While both cardboard and moulded fibre pulp are sustainable options, there are distinct advantages to each in terms of protective packaging.
According to a comparative analysis by BioResources, moulded fibre pulp generally offers superior cushioning and impact absorption due to its ability to be molded into precise shapes that cradle the product. This makes it particularly advantageous for protecting fragile items like glass bottles, where minimising movement and evenly distributing impact forces are crucial.
The table below highlights some of the key differences between these materials.
