Custom inner packaging solutions like die-cut inserts, partitions, and dividers are unique additions that can help protect your products from rubbing against each other and keep them in place during the shipping process. Customers will appreciate that you’ve taken all the necessary precautions to ensure that their orders arrive completely intact and exactly as advertised. After all, there’s nothing worse than ordering an item online, waiting eagerly for it to arrive in the mail only to be disappointed to open the package and find that the product has been damaged due to poor packaging.

Types of Custom Inner Packaging Solutions

Fragile items in particular require a little extra packaging to help keep them safe, undamaged, and in one piece. While you can’t control how shipping companies handle your packages after they’ve been sent out, you can control the precautions you take to protect your customers’ orders.

Magenta Depot offers the following types of custom inner packaging solutions to make sure that your products always arrive totally undamaged.

Die-Cut Inserts

Typically made of corrugated cardboard, die-cut inserts are an easy and affordable custom inner packaging solution to keep packaged items in place and prevent them from getting damaged. Ideal for fragile items, die-cut inserts are fully customizable and can be made to fit the dynamics of any package and product.

Partitions

Partitions are usually made of either corrugated cardboard or paperboard. They’re most commonly used by the bottled beverage industry to protect glass bottles, but they’ve also been known to be used to ship coffee and tea k-cup beverages as well. Partitions are snugly fitted to each product base. They’re used to separate each product and prevent them from shifting around during the shipping process.

Dividers

Dividers are essentially horizontal partitions that can be maneuvered within the packaging to accommodate the size and shape of the different products inside. Dividers are also typically made of corrugated cardboard or paperboard for exceptional sturdiness. They also prevent the top or bottom of the packaging from caving in if the package is roughly handled during shipping.

Benefits of Using Die-Cut Inserts

There are a lot of benefits of using die-cut inserts for custom print packaging. Die-cut inserts are affordable and in many cases very necessary when it comes to protecting fragile products from getting damaged, especially if they’re being shipped long distances. Here are a few reasons why die-cut inserts are a worthy investment:

  • Greater visual appeal: Die-cut inserts don’t just protect the items that are being shipped, but they also prevent them from moving around during shipping and keep everything in the packaging neat and organized.
  • Protection for fragile products: Customers won’t have to worry about ordering fragile items like perfume or alcohol in glass bottles.
  • Custom fitted for all products: Die-cut inserts are carefully measured using the unique dynamics of the products you’re shipping to guarantee a perfect fit and prevent movement.
  • Versatile and durable: Because they’re made of corrugated paperboard or cardboard, die-cut inserts are extremely durable and provide extra support to prevent the boxes from being crushed during the shipping process.
