Roll Cradles for Paper Rolls

Like other goods and materials, printed and unprinted paper rolls need specialized packaging solutions to protect them from transportation hazards. They must be able to reach customers in pristine condition, preserving their quality and functionality.

Rollguard® roll cradle packaging solutions offer optimal protection when warehousing, shipping and handling paper rolls. We manufacture our custom roll cradles in Germany from thick and durable molded pulp — a sustainable, 100% compostable and recyclable material — resulting in lower overhead costs and less waste.

Find Roll Cradles for All Your Paper Products

From lightweight paper products prone to damage to heavy-duty materials used in industrial settings, every type of paper roll has its own set of transit and storage challenges.

Our roll cradles can handle any type of paper rolls, offering a versatile packaging solution for the following:

• Kraft paper: This durable packaging material can be heavy depending on its width, length and thickness
• Newsprint: This fragile and easily damaged paper requires specialized handling.
• Polycoated paper: Paper with a plastic coating must be properly secured during transport to prevent rolling or tipping over.
• Flame-resistant paper: Any tearing or deformation could impact this paper’s effectiveness in volatile environments like welding
• Red rosin paper: Often produced in heavier, longer rolls, this everyday accessory in painting and construction can be challenging to secure in transit
• Exam table paper: While lightweight, exam table paper requires high degrees of sterility for its use in medical practices and spas.
• Tyvek® paper: The material’s smooth, slick surface makes secure packaging essential.

The Benefits of Roll Cradles for Paper Roll Applications

From delicate newsprint to sturdy kraft paper, finding the right pallet configuration for your paper rolls protects these materials from dents, tears and damage that can render them unusable. Our molded fiber cradles come in standard skid sizes ranging from 60 to 120 centimeters wide to meet high demands for paper roll handling, storage and transport.

We use recycled corrugated fiber pulp to manufacture our roll cradles, which offer incredible versatility based on the needs of your paper rolls. The custom-fit, cushioned support system minimizes impact and prevents crushing for lighter-weight paper products. The stable design and snug fit prevent heavier paper rolls from moving or rotating.

Our roll cradles are the most efficient way to secure paper rolls in shipping and warehousing. Here’s why:

• Overall protection: Many paper products are susceptible to tearing or crushing from physical impacts. Roll cradles keep your rolled paper firmly in place to reduce the risk of accidental damage.
• Optimized storage: When it comes to saving space, the pyramiding method just won’t cut it. Our fiber cradles allow you to stack paper rolls in a cube formation for more rolls per pallet — utilizing your floor space more efficiently.
• Sustainable solution: With an increasing focus on sustainability, many paper companies are adopting practices to reduce their environmental footprint. Our products are made from recyclable fiber pulp and require less material, reducing overall waste.
• Improved ease in shipping: Fiber cradle rolls are lightweight yet robust, making it easier to transport full skids of paper rolls. When shipments arrive at their destination, there are no nails or complicated disassembly. The one-piece design streamlines unpacking.
