1. Plastic Inserts (Blister Inserts)<\/strong>
Blister inserts are formed using vacuum-forming techniques. These inserts serve multiple purposes: providing support, protection, shock absorption, separation, fixation, and enhancing the appearance of the product.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Foam Inserts<\/strong>
Foam is a commonly used, cost-effective material with excellent shock absorption. It is ideal for packaging fragile items like glassware that require high levels of protection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Cardboard Inserts<\/strong>
Cardboard or corrugated paper is widely used due to its low cost and ease of processing. It is best suited for items with regular shapes, such as square or rectangular objects.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Sponge Inserts<\/strong>
High-density sponge inserts are known for their excellent elasticity and softness. They maintain their shape even after long use, providing a comfortable and durable option that won\u2019t deform or collapse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. EPE Foam Inserts (Expanded Polyethylene)<\/strong>
EPE foam is a higher-end material compared to regular foam. It is less prone to crumbling, making it a popular choice for electronic products. However, it is more expensive than foam.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. EVA Inserts<\/strong>
EVA (Ethylene Vinyl Acetate) foam is a dense, high-quality material available in black and white. Depending on the EVA content, the quality varies. It is often more visually appealing than PE foam, can be used directly, and can be molded into various shapes. Many packaging boxes now use EVA for inserts due to its versatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These inserts are chosen based on the product\u2019s needs, balancing cost, protection, and presentation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n
