What are packing paper rolls?

Continuous reels of protective paper for wrapping, interleaving and crumpled void fill. Tear or cut to length on the bench to match each SKU—minimising waste and keeping throughput high.

Why choose rolls over sheets?

Rolls deliver maximum flexibility when item sizes vary. For repeatable sizes and speed, use pre-cut kraft sheets or white sheets for a premium look.

Typical uses

Wrapping & scuff protection: ceramics, books, small appliances; add cardboard sheets for flat-face stiffness.

Void fill: crumple into springy cushions to stabilise contents in single wall and double wall boxes.

Retail presentation: line postal boxes; overlay with coloured tissue or switch to white sheets.

Eco-led packs: pair with paper bubble wrap and paper mailing bags for plastic-free dispatch.

Paper rolls vs other options

Option Best for Pros Consider
Paper Rolls Mixed SKU sizes, void fill Highly flexible, recyclable Needs cutter/dispenser; operator technique matters
Kraft Sheets Repeat sizes, speed control Consistent usage, tidy Less flexible for odd shapes
White Sheets Premium presentation/QC Shows dust/marks; clean look Slightly higher material cost
Paper Bubble Wrap Extra cushioning Plastic-free impact absorption Bulkier than flat paper layers
Small Bubble Wrap Conforming surface protection Highly protective Plastic film; consider end-of-life

For dense/fragile products use double wall boxes and add cardboard sheets to protect faces and spread load.

Packing tips

Wrap first, then fill: a snug wrap prevents scuffs; crumpled paper stabilises the load.

Layer heavy to light: heaviest items at the bottom; separate tiers with cardboard sheets.

Shake test: close the box and gently shake—if anything moves, add more cushions.
