The items are disposed within the package in a side-by-side, spaced configuration. The top and bottom sheets overlay the top and bottom edges of the items, respectively. The upper and lower pads are sandwiched between the top sheet and the top edges of the items and the bottom sheet and the bottom edges of the items, respectively. The end caps overlay the side edges of the items and a portion of the middle section of the items while remaining portions of the middle sections exposed to view. Stretchable plastic film is wrapped around the package.

Abstract: A shipping package system with at least one tier of vertically-stacked webbing rolls utilizes pads with an inner set of passages and an outer set of passages, which webbing rolls may have extended tubular core ends nesting in the pad passages. The outer set of passages accommodate radial webbing roll movement and inhibit circumferential movement about the pad center, which radial movement provides tangential contact between adjacent and/or inner passage webbing rolls.
