Getting to Know Void Fill Cushion
Void fill cushions are inflatable protective packaging materials designed to fill empty spaces in shipping boxes and packages. These air-filled cushions prevent items from moving during transit, providing essential protection against damage while being lightweight and cost-effective.
Void fill cushions are supplied as flat, deflated films on rolls that are inflated with air when needed. Using specialized equipment like air cushion machines, the film is automatically inflated and sealed to create individual cushions that perfectly fill empty spaces in packages.
