Why You Need Cardboard Corners
When you pull packaging strapping tight to lock a pallet down, the strap acts like a knife on the sharp edges of your cardboard boxes. It crushes the corners, dents the outer cartons, and can easily ruin the valuable stock inside. These thick, pre-cut cardboard angles act as a tough shield, spreading that tight squeeze across a wider area so your boxes stay perfectly flat and intact during transit.
| Your Strapping Type | Do You Need Corner Protection? | What the 50mm Guard Does |
|---|---|---|
| Steel Strapping | Yes – Highly Recommended | Stops sharp metal bands from slicing straight through your cardboard boxes and cutting into goods. |
| Polyester (PET) Strapping | Yes – For Heavy Pallet Loads | Holds up against heavy machine-pulled tension so the springy strap doesn't crush box edges. |
| Polypropylene (PP) Strapping | Recommended | Stops everyday hand-strapping from denting or squashing lighter e-commerce delivery boxes. |

Strap Protection FAQs
Why use these little 50mm pieces instead of a full-length pallet angle?
If you only need to protect the exact spot where the strap crosses the box edge, these little 50mm pre-cut corners are way cheaper. You don't waste any material, they don't take up space on your packing benches, and they do the exact same job as a full-length edge board.
Will these cardboard corners squash or give way under heavy steel strapping?
No, they hold up fine. They are made from highly compressed, thick layered paperboard that is built to take high tension. It creates a solid pad for the strap to rest on, so even high-strength steel or PET straps won't crush your stock.
Are these strap guards reusable, and can they be recycled?
Yes, absolutely. They are tough enough to be reused for moving stock around your own warehouse. And because they are made from 100% cardboard with no plastic coatings, your customers can throw them straight into their standard paper recycling bin along with the boxes.
