Scudo Flex corner protection for panels

Description of Scudo Flex corner protectors for panels

Scudo Flex represents the most recent evolution in the Scudo line of protection products. It is made entirely of cardboard and paper sheets.
From layers of cardboard and paper pre-treated to form an interlocking structure, a corner protector of specific thickness is obtained that can be expanded to provide complete protection.

Benefits of Scudo Flex edge protectors for panels

The main advantages that make Scudo Flex corner protectors for panels the most sustainable solution are:

• It facilitates packaging, since a single reference serves for various thicknesses.
• It is manufactured with a single product, paper and cardboard, facilitating recycling.
• The range of protection is high.
• It allows to reduce packaging stock.

Properties of Scudo Flex corner protectors for panels

Scudo Flex is composed of interwoven layers of paper, which has a high resistance of about 10 kg/square centimeter. Thus, the strength varies depending on the size of the cell formed when the protection is expanded.

To achieve a higher resistance, it is necessary to add more paper and reduce the size of the cell, making it more compact. On the other hand, if a lower resistance is sought, it can be extended to the maximum, exceeding its original size, resulting in a larger protection surface, although with lower resistance capacity.

We can imagine it as a sandwich with two outer layers of rigid cardboard and a middle layer of flexible paper. As it is stretched more, its energy absorption capacity is reduced; as it is stretched less, its strength is increased. From these configurations, all possibilities can be explored.

This range of protection allows boards to be effectively protected in thicknesses ranging from 1 cm to 5 cm, which reduces the space required for storage, transport and handling of the product. This simplifies logistics and significantly reduces associated costs.

Applications of Scudo Flex corner protections for panels

Scudo Flex is useful for many industries. Like its predecessor Scudo, this product is particularly suitable for the furniture industry, including flat pieces, modules and kit furniture, thanks to its extensible corner pieces that adapt to different thicknesses with a single reference.

However, this new generation of Scudo also finds applications in sectors such as glass, automotive and e-commerce. With a single piece that conforms to various shapes and expands in several directions, it is able to easily cover irregularly shaped products. This is beneficial for products such as lamps, automotive parts and even bottles, extending its versatility and potential in multiple industries.
