EdgePak Straw
Strawbased packaging solutions
EdgePak Straw is a solution that provides stacking strength and easy handling at a low carbon footprint. Its foldable corners are made from strawboard, creating a strong moisture resistant construction that can stack over 4 tons.
Strong
The innovative design creates a solution as strong as plywood that has better stacking strength than a triple wall corrugated box
Health and Safety
The solution is easy to handle and can be assembled without using a single nail. It creates a quiet and safe work environment at both packing and un-packing destination.
Environment
EdgePak Straw is easy to recycle and have a minimum impact on the environment compared to other solutions.
Why is Strawboard strong?
Nefab EdgePak Straw evolved out of our duty corrugated solution. We wanted to develop a quick-and-easy solution with lower cost and increased stacking strength. The compact, wet mechanical process makes straw pulp more resistant to moisture than paper. The straw fibers are short (not flexible) but very stiff compared to wood fiber, when combining the layers it gives the material great strength.

Award winning application for Lithium-Ion Batteries
Background
Nefab was contacted by a company with the goal of improving their supply chain. Their customer, the 4th largest car manufacturer, requested them to eliminate the expendable Expanded Polypropylene (EPP) trays currently used to transport battery modules from China to Europe. The EPP tray’s recycling cost and environmental impact were both unacceptable to them.
Our Solution
As a solution to the request, our engineers in China developed a design almost entirely made of paper. The new solution was based on EdgePak Straw, corrugated and paper pulp fitments.
The EdgePak Straw design provides enough strength to pass the UN certification and allowed 1+3 stacking with over 350 kg per box. The packaging solution is UN certified to meet the demands for transporting LiBs.
