Best Designing Custom Foam Inserts? Consider These 3 Things
Did you open a container following a move and found that some delicate items have been damaged? It is likely that these objects were subject to some turbulence during transport, and with no adequate protection the items slid from their place and became damaged.
To prevent the same negative consequences, companies rely on customized foam inserts to provide the tough exterior of their packaging for their products. They can be found in standard cases or customized solutions These inserts provide exact protection for delicate items -as well as highlighting your company’s brand in a positive light.
When you are thinking about the possibility of customizing foam-filled inserts for your own purposes There are three factors to guide your design process.
The Weight & Fragility of Your Product
Fragility and weight are two important aspects to consider when creating individual foam inserts to fit into cases. In some cases you could be dealing with light, delicate items which can range from hearing aids to pencils. Regarding the kind of foam that is used, Polyurethane is the best choice since it is specifically designed for delicate products that aren’t heavy.
If you’re talking about the size of a 70-pound brake for an airplane it’s going to require an extra-strong, durable solution by the outside in. Custom foam inserts constructed from polyethylene, a tough and dense foam designed for products that weigh more is an option.
Positioning & Cushioning Requirements
Imagine a scenario in which the sales team meets with doctors to promote the product for spinal implants. If the case doesn’t contain proper compartments to store the various products, their contents could be disorganized (and could be damaged). This could make the presentation less effective in its presentation and also less attractive.
From a cushioning and position viewpoint, polyethylene is known as a material for customized foam cushions. This is because the firm and dense foam is able to withstand chemical and moisture and will not degrade in the course of constant use. The foam inserts that you design are able to be customized to exact specifications of your product fleet and then easily removed for display reasons.
The Branding Opportunities
Although the outside of your packaging product should tell the story of your brand, it’s not the place where you should stop. From the materials to the colors your customized foam packaging should also be considered as an opportunity to increase your brand’s image and to educate other people about your products.
Let’s consider the case of a medical device maker that wants to upgrade the display case to showcase surgical instruments. A cherry-stained wooden case is able to be combined with a foam insert that holds the items in the exact height, and comes with the photo-etched labels of every product. The same elegant design on the outside of the case can be seen inside.
