N.A.L. Company® commitment to recycling extends through all our packaging product lines. Our protective packaging products are manufactured from recycled fibers, approximately 80% of which is post-consumer fiber and 20% of which is pre-consumer fiber. All surface and corner protection products are 100% recyclable, and in some cases can be used more than once. N.A.L. Company, Inc.’s products provide protection with a minimum amount of packaging material, making them a natural choice for source reduction.

Corner Board is a highly demanded and utilized product that solves a wide range of packaging challenges. Made by laminating recycled paperboard into a rigid right-angle shape, Corner Board provides edge protection as well as load containment, stabilization and uniform weight distribution throughout the transportation and storage of the finished product. There are a variety of sizes, configurations, and options available. Standard printing dies as well as and custom printing graphics are available and it provides an added marketability to your product. The Corner Board is versatile, practical, and cost effective, offering unmatched performance in comparison to other products in today’s marketplace.

Both standard and custom print options are available for this product.

How Do I Know What I Need?

1.   How do you know what size leg is right for your shipments? 

  • It all depends on how much protection your pallets load will require.
  • The wider the leg used, the greater the surface protection.
  • As leg width increases, products are held more securely together and become less prone to shifting their way off the stack.

2.   Total Corner board length is important for two key reasons. 

  • If too short the top cartons on the pallet are exposed to corner damage and displacement as items are stacked. This leads to a lack of protection for the top rows of packages which are at the highest risk of shifting and turning.
  • If too long your Corner Board will prevent pallets from stacking on top of each other because the Corner Board will protrude past the top of your package.

3.   How thick do I need?

  • The thickness of the Corner board is where all our strength originates from to resist failing while under either compression or torsional stresses.
  • Light duty- Non-stacking applications- Ranges from .080″ – .150″
  • Medium duty- Stacking and stabilization applications – Ranges from .160″ – .200″
  • Heavy Duty- Multi-layer stacking and Stabilization applications- Ranges from .225″ – .300″

CPPS ONE-PAGER

REQUEST SAMPLE

Corner Board Perforation Placement System (CPPS™)

Corner Board Perforation Placement System, or CPPS™, patented and trademarked, is made of laminated sheets of paperboard, formed into a 90˚ angle with a perforated, partially delaminated paperboard located inside the corner board. The product allows tearing motions to create a tag, or ear-flap that will protrude perpendicularly to the corner board, then sandwich between two products to hold the corner board in place while the full product is packed for shipment.

By applying CPPS™ to packaging products, users can save time, resources, and improve safety functions. With the development of this product, we managed to create a product exceedingly useful for manufacturing and packaging industries that had not been developed before. This product produces very little scrap, occupies very little time, and is cost effective without producing safety issues or ergonomic hazards.

WeatherGuard Corner Protectors
Moisture Resistant Coating Inside and Out 

WeatherGuard Corner Protectors feature a moisture-resistant coating inside and out which repels penetrants such as water, oil, and grease while maintaining your factory coatings protecting the parts from corrosion. Why buy other products that only claim to protect from one element at a time, when you can solve all you moisture problems with one product, WeatherGuard. This product develops a water bead that rolls off before it can absorb and cause damage.

WeatherGuard maintains product stacking integrity in applications where water, oils, grease, humidity and condensation are present. These corner protectors are particularly useful for load stabilization while shipping fruits, vegetables, and other foods. WeatherGuard can be applied to all lines and dimensions of corner protectors. It is available in a kraft color and can be applied to both sides or only one side of the corner protector.
