Abstract
A packaging material consisting of small pieces for filling the cavities in packaging containers. The packaging material consists of an outer cover, of a coarse-porous, air-permeable, thin paper, as for example a highstrength wrapping tissue, which surrounds a filling of waste paper or shredded paper (scraps) from paper shredding machines or the like. The ball-like packaging pieces of up to 10 cm in diameter are formed by folding or sealing. The filling does not have the tendency to crumble and all pieces are continuously reusable. Each packaging piece is very elastic due to its air-permeability and adapts well to the cavities to be filled.
Claims9
A packaging material for dunnage purposes, comprising small-sized individual bodies of substantially identical shape to be introduced into hollows of packages or containers encompassing articles which are to be cushioned therein, each body including a filler comprising paper shreddings within an outer paper envelope, wherein each body is substantially ball-shaped with a diameter ranging between 1 cm and 10 cm, and wherein the paper envelope is air-permeable and is made of coarsely porous, heat-sealable, thin high-strength wrapping tissue.
