PACK FAQS

What equipment do I need to set up a warehouse packing station?

A well-equipped warehouse packing station typically includes a pack bench, packaging dispensers, cutting tools and suitable protective packaging. Depending on order volumes and products, businesses may also benefit from air pillow or paper void fill systems to improve packing speed and consistency.

What is the best void fill for e-commerce packaging?

The best void fill depends on the product, carton size and level of protection required. Air pillows are lightweight and efficient for filling empty space, while paper void fill provides versatile cushioning and blocking for a wide range of e-commerce and warehouse applications.

Should I use paper void fill or air pillows?

Paper void fill is a good choice for businesses looking for versatile cushioning, blocking and bracing, while air pillows provide lightweight protection with minimal material usage. The right solution depends on product weight, fragility, sustainability requirements and packing volumes.

How can I reduce product damage during delivery?

Using correctly sized cartons with suitable cushioning and void fill can help prevent products moving during transit. Air pillows, paper void fill and protective packaging papers can cushion goods and fill empty spaces, reducing movement and helping minimise costly transit damage and returns.

What packaging equipment is best for a high-volume fulfilment centre?

High-volume fulfilment operations can benefit from ergonomic pack benches, integrated dispensers and on-demand protective packaging systems. Air pillow and paper void fill systems produce packaging as required, helping teams maintain packing speed while reducing the storage space needed for bulky pre-filled materials.

How can I make a warehouse packing station more efficient?

Keep frequently used packaging materials and equipment within easy reach and organise the workstation around the packing process. Pack benches, integrated dispensers and on-demand void fill systems can reduce unnecessary movement and help operators process orders more efficiently.

Are cardboard shredders suitable for warehouse packaging?

Yes. Industrial cardboard shredders can convert used corrugated cardboard into protective cushioning and void fill. This allows warehouses and fulfilment centres to reuse suitable cardboard waste onsite while reducing their requirement for additional protective packaging materials.

What protective packaging should I use for fragile products?

Fragile products generally require cushioning that limits movement and absorbs impacts during handling and delivery. Depending on the product, businesses can use air cushions, paper void fill, honeycomb paper or other protective packaging materials to create an appropriate level of protection inside the carton.

When should a business invest in an automated void fill system?

An on-demand void fill system can be particularly beneficial when increasing order volumes make manual packing slower or inconsistent. Producing air cushions or paper void fill directly at the packing station can improve productivity, provide more consistent material usage and support higher warehouse throughput.
