Hybrid Cushioning
Cushioning Squared, Exponential Protection
The exclusive square pattern looks amazing and keeps items from "bottoming-out" to prevent damage. The square pattern has more surface area than competitive circular cushioning, providing more surface area to better cradle and cushion products during transit.
HC Renew is made from low-density polyethylene with a minimal of 30% Post Consumer recycled content, certified by PolyCert. Hybrid cushioning delivers unrivaled protection at a premium aesthetic consumers prefer.
HC maximizes space efficiency, optimizing transport logistics for your business. The on-demand inflatable cushioning reduces packaging volume compared to traditional ready-to-use bubble alternatives, requiring fewer trucks on the road.
Once inflated, this solution provides premium protection while utilizing 99% air for efficient material use.
