We feel it’s our job and mission to inform our site visitors and potential customers of the different products available and how they could impact their operations. That’s especially true when it comes to safely and securely transporting your product. Vboard, or corner board a product that is particularly impactful product when it comes to shipping. But what is vboard? What is it used for? Let’s explore.
Vboard, commonly referred to as corner board, is a tough, paper-based edge protector designed to give additional strength and wear protection to the edges of bulk packaging and pallets. It’s most used as reinforcements on palletized freight and mostly used as protective packaging. They are particularly useful for protection during transportation and shipping as they provide additional structure to pallets when they are secured.
Vboard can be customized in several ways to make it ideal for any product and/or application. It can be purchased in various thicknesses and lengths to match any custom bulk packaging that you may be using. It is also offered in various colors if that is required by your application.
One of the more common applications of vboard is its use to stabilize roll stock. If you’re using stretch to palletize your product before shipping, vboard is often added to the corners of the palletized product to alleviate pressure from the stretch on the product and stabilize the entire pallet.
If you currently palletize your product before shipping and/or transportation, then vboard may be a great fit for your organization. Talk to us today if you’re interested in vboard and we’ll find the right fit for your product and/or application.
