Internal Packaging Solutions to Protect Your Products

At Nelson Container we offer a number of protective foam packaging options and corrugated inserts to keep your products safe. The type of foam used in your packaging depends on what you are looking to ship. Convoluted (egg crate) is great for keeping fragile products safe during transit due to its shock absorption properties. Another common type of foam inserts is anti static foam, primarily in shipping sensitive electronic products to provide added protection while mitigating the risk of static electricity causing damage to the electrical components.

 

 

Time Saving Packaging Solutions

Pre-Assembled Packaging

Nelson Container has workers who specialize in assembling your packaging before it arrives at your warehouse or production room floor. When your packaging is complicated, requires taking the time to fold and insert one piece into another, or just isn't something you want to have your workers assemble, we do it for you.

Pre-assembling your packages saves you time and money. Your workers can continue working on what they do. We continue to work on creating the fastest and best packaging available. And the rest of the supply chain continues doing what they do best—supplying.

24-Hour Turnaround Times

Our manufacturing process is set up to get you your packaging fast and when you need it. Our business day starts at 4 in the morning, allowing us to get your order, process the specifications, set up our machines, and completely manufacture your shipping boxes within 24 hours for repeat orders. Our vendor managed inventory and quick response manufacturing practices are additional services

All of our corrugated (not cardboard) containers can be recycled and reused to reduce our impact on the environment.

Our custom corrugated boxes will meet your exact requirements, from the size and shape to interior inserts for added protection. We rigorously test all our packages in our in-house ISTA lab to make sure your items arrive in perfect condition.
