Abstract: An edge protector including a main body for installation on a box or package for protection and reinforcement. The edge protector includes first and second legs and a cover layer that extends over the outer surface of both of the first and second legs. An attachment portion of the cover layer extends over the outer edge of each leg and is retained along an inner surface of the leg on a release liner. During use, the attachment portions are both released from the release liner on the inner surface of the first and second legs such that an adhesive on the attachment portion can be used to attach the edge protector to a package or product.
