Preface
Over the years Ranpak has become more than just a supplier of packaging systems.
One of the key elements of the success story of Ranpak is the offered Added Value
Services.
The Ranpak Packaging Engineering department is often challenged to pack very
specific products in PadPak packaging pads. These products are often not that easy
to pack, because they are heavy, fragile or just have a complicated shape. The last 15
years we have made hundreds of packaging examples.
This booklet shows some of these examples, categorized in industries. We tried to pick
not only interesting products, but also interesting applications of the paper. You will find
all packaging techniques possible with PadPak in the examples. The booklet will show
which converter actually was used to pack these products, but will also show alterna-
tive converters that could be used as well for these kinds of products.
On top of that we added packaging tips. 10 Basic tips to improve the quality, speed,
appearance and easiness of your package. Most packaging tips can even be found in
a small movie on YouTube. Just scan the QR code; for the digital version of this book-
let just touch the QR code.
For the digital version of this booklet, to go to a specific product, just touch the picture
of the product in the Index. It will automatically take you to the specific example.
Enjoy the booklet.

2Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Basic step of Paper Packaging
For square shaped products use diagonal crossed pads. For round shaped products use straight crossed pads.
For square products it is important to protect the corners. Therefore you should place
diagonal crossed pads exactly there where they should offer protection. For round
products the corners are not that important, because the distance between product
and box is biggest at the corners. It is better to place the pads at the spot where the
distance between product and box is smallest.
1.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 1 of paper packaging”
3Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Always push product together with crossed pads in box.
Doing this you can see that the pads will form itself around the product. Pushing in the
pads first and the product after will be more difficult to get the product in.
2.
4Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Basic step of Paper Packaging
Voids bigger than 8 cm, use the pads upright.
3.
Use the strength of the “wave” in the
middle of the pad. For extra strength
use spirals and “snakes”. Use flat pads
only for small voids. To make it easy to
remember 2 pads flat okay, 3 pads flat,
use a coil instead.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 3 of paper packaging”
5Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
For high, flat products use 4 coils in the corners of the box.
Ideal solution for products like radiators, windscreens and TV-sets. Vary the height of
the coils by playing with the density of it. Make sure that the coils on top stick out a bit.
When closing the box, the pads are slightly under pressure and therefore the product
is fixated and cushioned ideally.

6Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Basic step of Paper Packaging
Try to fixate products as much as possible
By fixating products in the box, the products are packed in a better way with less
material. Fixating is the best way to save on material costs.
5.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 5 of paper packaging”
7Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Use enough bottom protection when packing fragile products.
Remember, if a box gets an impact, the highest chance (70%) that it will be at the
bottom (bottom corner, bottom edge or flat bottom). Therefore divide as follow: 1/3 of
the packaging material on top; 2/3 underneath the product.
6.
= Protective layer
2/3 = cushioning
8Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Basic step of Paper Packaging
For long, narrow products use small coils at the ends (and middle)
7.
Sandwiching a long product between
coils is a very fast, economic and
flexible way to secure your product.
TIPS & TrICkS
Use a coil to get the maximum
cuschioning effect of the paper
pad.
For lighter products use loose
coils, for heavy products use
dens coils.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 7 of paper packaging”
9Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Manually creating and closing a coil
To keep a coil together, just coil the pad to a spiral, then open up the ends of the paper
and push them into the coil. Now your coil does not open anymore.
8.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 8 of paper packaging”
10Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Basic step of Paper Packaging
Determine pad density
The density of a coil or a snake can be adjusted to light or heavy products. Use coils or
snakes with a higher density for heavy products, a lower density for light weight products.
9.
Watch the video on our Academy YouTube Channel “Basic step 9 of paper packaging”
11Packing with PadPak - Packaging Engineering
Use the flexibility of the paper
PadPak® is a flexible packaging material. With a flat pad from the machine it is easy to
make coils, corner pads, snake pads or wrap the flat pad in between the products to
avoid contact.
