An extensible slit sheet paper product is produced having an expandable slit pattern that forms open cells upon expansion of the paper product. The paper product is an extensible paper having an extensibility in the range from 1-9% in the machine direction and 1-5% in the cross direction. The expansion produces an array of hexagonal cells. The expanded extensible paper can be used to wrap an object for shipping by wrapping and cushioning the object in the expanded slit sheet material. The extensible, expandable slit sheet paper can be wrapped around itself to produce a void fill product.

Provided are a new concept vegetable binding packing material having an air column, suitable for protecting vegetables, a new concept vegetable binding packing device for binding vegetables using the same, and a packaging method therefor. A vegetable binding packing material including an air column includes: at least one air column disposed in a row to surround a certain amount of vegetables in a direction crossing a lengthwise direction of the vegetables; and a bonding portion configured to bond both ends from the at least one air column to the outside of the vegetables. A vegetable binding packing device according to the present disclosure includes: a packing material supply unit configured to feed a packing material; a clamp injection module including a clamping unit configured to clamp a front portion of the packing material and an injection unit configured to inject air into an air column pattern; a vegetable supply unit configured to supply vegetables; and a sealing module configured to seal a portion of the air column pattern across the air column pattern injected with air.

Sheet packaging has a corrugated ply bonded to a backing ply. The corrugated ply forms parallel flutes. The packaging comprises voids through both the corrugated ply and the backing ply at intervals along the flutes, thereby forming a plurality of insular portions interconnected by flexures. Each insular portion has a flute portion and a backing portion between adjacent voids and bonded together at respective edges and each flexure comprises bonded-together portions of the corrugated ply and the backing ply. The flexures confer hyper flexibility to the packaging wherein each flexure possesses an independent bend axis across which the flexure can both be twisted and bent.
