Introduction: Honeycomb paper packaging enters the era of "personalized customization"

 

With the improvement of environmental awareness, honeycomb paper rolls are widely used in e-commerce, manufacturing, logistics, and other industries due to their environmental protection, lightweight weight and recyclability. More and more customers have put forward personalized requirements for parameters such as the size, structure, unfolding density, and color of honeycomb paper.

 

As a manufacturer or packaging service provider, how to efficiently respond to customer needs and reasonably formulate the size and structure of honeycomb paper has become the key to improving satisfaction and repurchase rate.

 

What are the basic structures of honeycomb paper rolls?

 

Before going into customization, we must first understand the basic composition and terminology of honeycomb paper structures:

 

Parameter category Definition Common options    
Roll width Width of the unfolded paper 250mm / 300mm / 500mm    
Roll length Length of the base paper when not unfolded 200m / 250m / 300m    
Unfolding ratio Ratio of the unfolded paper length to the base paper length 1.6\~2.5 times, depending on the paper weight and embossing degree    
Honeycomb aperture size Size of the holes in the unfolded mesh structure  Small holes (suitable for precision products) / Large holes (suitable for cushioning packaging such as home furnishings)    
Color Usually used for brand distinction or aesthetics Brown, white, black, customizable

How to customize honeycomb paper structure according to industry application?

 

Different products have different requirements for cushioning packaging. The following are recommended customization ideas based on common industry types:

 

🛍 E-commerce industry


*Recommended size: width 250~300mm, unfolding ratio more than 2 times

*Recommended structure: small and medium aperture, enhanced flexibility

*Packaging features: emphasize flexibility and adaptability to multiple categories of goods; it is recommended to use with lining paper

 

🧰 Industrial accessories/hardware industry


*Recommended size: width 400~500mm, paper weight thickening

*Recommended structure: medium honeycomb density, improve cushioning protection performance

*Packaging features: mostly batch transportation, emphasizing pressure resistance and shock absorption, it is recommended to use paper pads to enhance protection

 

🥂 Wine/glass products industry


*Recommended size: small rolls below 250mm, convenient for single bottle packaging

*Recommended structure: small hole honeycomb, strong protection

*Packaging features: need to avoid breakage, emphasize fit, paper needs to be soft and tear-resistant

 

🚚 Third-party logistics packaging service


Recommended size: multiple specifications in stock (250mm, 300mm, 500mm)
Recommended structure: multi-aperture structure matching to meet the needs of customers in different industries
Packaging features: emphasize fast packaging and standardized output; it is recommended to match with the automatic honeycomb paper cutting system

Problems that are easily overlooked when customizing honeycomb paper

 

In actual applications, many new users tend to make the following mistakes when customizing honeycomb paper:

 

1. Blindly pursuing thickening or large-pore structure → easily leads to excessive packaging or waste of cost

2. Failure to consider the adaptability of the packaging machine → The width or core size is not compatible with the packaging table

3. The unfolding ratio is too high → It is easy to cause the paper to break or the extension to be unstable

4. Lack of brand color and LOGO → It is difficult to establish a brand impression in the minds of customers

 

The solution is: When customizing paper rolls, keep close communication with the honeycomb paper equipment supplier to ensure that the structural parameters are fully matched with the usage scenario.

 

Conclusion

 

Under the general trend of honeycomb paper replacing plastic packaging, customization capabilities are becoming a key factor in packaging companies' building core competitiveness.

 

Whether you are a manufacturer, e-commerce warehouse, or packaging service provider, choosing a honeycomb paper making machine that supports efficient customization will help you respond to customer needs more quickly and improve service quality and brand influence.
