A corner piece is provided for forming packaging elements. The corner piece includes an inner member and an outer member having respective apexes. A connecting member connects the inner and outer members and substantially aligns their apexes, while spacing the inner and outer members apart from one another. A securing element is provided in the outer member for securing an exterior edge protector along the outer member. The securing element includes substantially U-shaped retaining walls engageable with the exterior edge protector. In some embodiments, the spacing between the inner and outer members defines retaining cavities for securing adjacent sidewalls of a storage container.
A corner piece configured to retain an exterior edge protector and space it apart from an external edge of an article, the corner piece having a body comprising:
A method for assembling a protective assembly for protecting an external edge of an article during transport, the method comprising the steps of:
19-20. (canceled)
A corner piece having a body comprising an L-shaped outer member with substantially perpendicular sidewalls and an L-shaped inner member with substantially perpendicular sidewalls, the inner and outer members being spaced apart from one another and defining cavities between sidewalls of the outer member and the sidewalls of the inner member, the outer member comprising a first securing element sized to receive a first elongated L-shaped edge protector and secure it along the sidewalls of the outer member, and the inner member comprising a second securing element sized to receive a second elongated L-shaped edge protector and secure it along the sidewalls of the inner member.
