[0001] The present disclosure relates to in general to an improved packaging system, and, in particular, to an improved system, method, and apparatus having a corrugated padding to give protection to products from all sides which are prone to damages in transit.

BACKGROUND
[0002] Background description includes information that may be useful in understanding the present invention. It is not an admission that any of the information provided herein is prior art or relevant to the presently claimed invention, or that any publication specifically or implicitly referenced is prior art.
[0003] Packaging engineering, also package engineering, packaging technology and packaging science, is a broad topic ranging from design conceptualization to product placement. All steps along the manufacturing process, and more, must be taken into account in the design of the package for any given product. Package engineering includes industry-specific aspects of industrial engineering, marketing, materials science, industrial design and logistics. Packaging engineers must interact with research and development, manufacturing, marketing, graphic design, regulatory, purchasing, planning and so on. The package must sell and protect the product, while maintaining an efficient, cost-effective process cycle.
[0004] Engineers develop packages from a wide variety of rigid and flexible materials. Some materials have scores or creases to allow controlled folding into package shapes (sometimes resembling origami). Packaging involves extrusion, thermoforming, molding and other processing technologies. Packages are often developed for high speed fabrication, filling, processing, and shipment. Packaging engineers use principles of structural analysis and thermal analysis in their evaluations.
[0005] The products normally comprise a curvature at top and along end side of its total length. Any drop, especially at the end side, leads to damage of the product. Presently the product has expanded polyethylene foam (EPE / PE) buffers which are acting as cushioning materials to protect the product during transit. Since corrugated packaging material is cheaper compared to present EPE padding, we thought of trying out multifold corrugated padding which will function like present EPE buffer and at the same time it will be economical.
[0006] However, present buffers are thicker, has more material content hence more weight of buffers, and solid blocks used to give required cushioning. Present buffers do not have multifold padding. Further, more/extra material content is required if buffers are filled. Further, present buffers have absence of locking system with thicker buffers. Furthermore, the present buffers take more volume on shop floor where the packaging material is stored in packaging assembly line.
[0007] Whereas there is certainly nothing wrong with existing buffers/packaging systems, nonetheless, there still exists a need to provide an efficient, effective, reliable, and improved corrugated padding to give protection to products from all sides which are prone to damages in transit. Further, such corrugated padding should be capable of having multifold padding.
