Egg crate foam is an excellent option if you need to protect products of varying shapes and sizes during shipping.
Egg crate foam, also called convoluted foam, is widely used to line cardboard boxes and protective cases. Its surface features a repeating pattern of peaks and dips that resembles an egg crate. Typically made using polyurethane foam, it braces and cushions products, preventing damage.
At Suttons Protective Packaging, we have specialist equipment to create egg crate foam profiles. Combined with our other foam conversion and corrugated box manufacturing capability, we can develop a range of custom foam packaging products tailored to your products.
Egg crate foam is a simple yet effective way to protect items in transit. To use, simply follow these steps.

You can source convoluted foam sheets or egg crate foam packaging from us.
Our in-house manufacturing capability means we can supply sheets of material in the specific sizes your business needs or as part of fully fabricated foam packaging products.
Using a non-abrasive polyurethane foam, available in several grades, densities and thicknesses, egg crate foam stabilizes and cushions your products during transit, preventing damage. Unlike custom foam inserts, egg crate foam can accommodate products of varying sizes and shapes. It is also lightweight and cost effective.
We can supply your foam packaging, which includes end caps and anti-static options, as well as your outer packaging. This includes single-trip corrugated packaging, available plain or with print, and high-performance protective cases.
