Corner Protector

Wholesale Cardboard Corner Protectors

Corner protectors are rigid cardboard angle boards placed along the edges of a palletised load to protect corners, spread strapping pressure and hold the load stable in transit. They are a simple, effective way to reduce edge crushing and product damage on strapped and wrapped pallets. Premium Packaging supplies corner protectors in wholesale and bulk quantities across a range of lengths, delivered Australia-wide from our Sydney base.

What Corner Protectors Are

Also known as edge boards or angle boards, corner protectors are L-shaped lengths of compressed cardboard, 4mm thick, that sit over the edges of a load. Placed under strapping or stretch wrap, they spread the pressure of the strap across a wider area, which stops straps cutting into cartons and keeps the load square. Our range covers 50mm x 50mm and 60mm x 60mm profiles in lengths from 400mm to 1600mm, supplied in packs of 25.

Why Businesses Use Corner Protectors

• Protect product and carton edges from crushing and strap damage.
• Spread strapping tension across the edge so straps hold without cutting in.
• Add vertical rigidity that helps stop a stacked pallet from leaning or collapsing.
• Keep loads square and stable through handling, transport and storage.
• Made from recyclable cardboard, so they fit standard cardboard recycling.

Common Applications

• Palletising cartons and stacked goods for storage and freight.
• Securing loads with strapping, where corner protectors spread the strap pressure.
• Protecting the edges of furniture, whitegoods, glass, boards and framed items.
• Export and long-haul freight where loads are handled many times.
• Bundling long or edged products such as profiles, boards and panels.

Choosing the Right Corner Protector

Length. Match the board length to the height or edge you are protecting. Our range runs from 400mm for short edges up to 1600mm for full pallet-height loads.

Profile. 50mm x 50mm suits lighter loads and standard cartons, while 60mm x 60mm gives a wider bearing surface for heavier or more demanding loads. All boards are 4mm thick for rigidity. If you are not sure which suits your loads, our team can recommend a size.

Complete Your Pallet and Load Protection Supply

Corner protectors work hand in hand with the products used to secure palletised loads. Combine them with strapping, which they protect cartons against by spreading tension, and with pallet wrap and stretch film to stabilise the load. Add pallet pads for layer protection and pair with the wider cardboard boxes and packaging and protective packaging range. Order everything from one supplier with Australia-wide delivery.
