About Honeycomb Packaging

Honeycomb packaging, or honeycell-based packaging, is a sustainable and effective way to ship products in the retail and industrial packaging space. Comprised of all corrugated, honeycomb packaging is always curbside recyclable and lightweight. 

Honeycomb packaging can be used for many different package conversion applications for products, including specialty die-cut applications like kits for assembly-required furniture or closet systems, electronics like TVs, laptops, and speaker systems, and many more. 

Other applications often include cold-chain packaging. Colony Packaging & Machine works with our manufacturing partners to deliver lab-tested results whenever recommending cold-chain or specialty weight-influenced specifications. 

Honeycomb packaging can also be a great alternative in crating and shipping by providing effective sidewalls, shipping rails, oversized roll cradles, and more. The versatility of honeycomb packaging is unmatched, with its ability to replace alternative packaging materials like foam (including spray foam, die cuts, and panels), wood, and alternative corrugated options.

Honeycomb Packaging Featured Applications

Layer Stacking

Honeycomb Packaging Solutions

Risers

Various sheet sizes, densities, and thicknesses are available based on your application needs. Stabilize a load by blocking or raising rolls with lightweight risers. Risers restrict lateral load movement during transport and reduce damage. This very light honeycomb packaging solution offers high compression strength, allowing for more products in your load. They help prevent damage and reduce associated claims.

Cradles

Maintain steadiness of any cylindrical products that need to be horizontally stacked and contained. Facilitate loading and unloading; the ideal transportation solution for rolls exceeding 136'' and weighing up to 12,000 lbs; great compression strength—honeycomb packaging cradles have a high load-bearing capacity (from 45'' to 50'' in diameter).
