  • Publication number: 20150210457
    Abstract: A bottle shipping system and method for packaging bottles that prevents movement of the bottles during transport. The system includes a first foam section is placed on the bottom wall of a carton having a rectangular shaped prism having four side walls, a bottom wall and a top wall to provide a support surface on which the bottles are placed. A second foam section having a first plurality of openings therethrough adapted to receive the body of the bottles is disposed within the carton above the first foam section. A third foam section having a second plurality of openings therethrough adapted to receive the neck of the bottles is disposed between the second foam section and the top wall of the carton. A fourth foam section to provide a buffer surface against which the bottles are pressed is placed against the top wall of the carton.

  • Patent number: 8430242
    Abstract: A shipping system comprising: a plurality of edge protectors, each of the edge protectors comprising: a backwall; an upper jaw member in communication with the backwall, the upper jaw member having a top surface; a lower jaw member in communication with the backwall, the lower jaw member having a lower surface, and the lower surface and the top surface are generally flat and parallel to each other; a single slot defined by the upper jaw member and the lower jaw member, and the single slot being generally orthogonal to the backwall, the edge protector having an outer width; at least one u-channel support member, the u-channel support member comprising: a bottom wall; a first sidewall extending generally orthogonally from the bottom wall; a second sidewall extending generally orthogonally from the bottom wall; an interior width between an interior surface of the first sidewall and the interior surface of the second sidewall, and where the interior width is generally equal to the outer width.
