Packing Chips – Loose Fill Packaging | Pack Exact

Packing Chips, Loose Fill Packaging

Protect fragile and irregularly shaped items with packing chips, also known as void fill or loose fill. Available in 15, 30 and 45 cubic foot bags, these lightweight, shock-absorbing chips keep your products safe during transit.

15 Cubic Foot

Perfect for smaller businesses or occasional shipping needs. Easy to handle, store and dispense for everyday protection.

30 Cubic Foot

The most popular option, offering a balance between bulk economy and easy handling. Ideal for regular eCommerce dispatch.

45 Cubic Foot

Best for high-volume users needing continuous loose fill availability in warehouses and busy packing stations.

Why choose packing chips?

Packing chips fill voids inside cardboard boxes, preventing items from shifting. Their interlocking design cushions shocks, reducing the risk of breakage. Compared with flat sheets, chips mould around products of any shape for all-round protection.

For a more eco-friendly alternative, see our biodegradable loose fill. Pair packing chips with bubble wrap, packing paper, or honeycomb paper wrap for layered, multi-material protection. Add edge protection for large or fragile items.
