A product packaging system in one embodiment includes a stack of products defining a pair of opposing major side surfaces, a top surface, a bottom surface, and pair of opposing end surfaces; protective corrugated sheets covering two or more of the stack side, top, and bottom surfaces; and a protective end pad covering each of the stack end surfaces. Each protective corrugated sheet includes a pair of longitudinally-extending and protruding corner reinforcement structures disposed along corner regions of the stack. The reinforcement structures are three-dimensional structures having different possible configurations which provide crush-resistance in the assembled product package. The product package collectively comprising the foregoing components is insertable into an outer shipping carton for transit. Some embodiments include banding which holds the stack of products together. In one embodiment, the products may be mirrors.

The application discloses a packaging structure, which includes an upper cover and a lower cover. The upper cover includes a first base plate, a first packaging part, and a second packaging part. The first base plate is divided into a first portion and a second portion by a first folding part. The first packaging part is disposed on the first portion, and has a plurality of first separation troughs. The second packaging part is disposed on the second portion, and has a plurality of second separation troughs. The first separation troughs can be respectively in communication with the second separation troughs to form a plurality of first accommodating slots. First ends of a plurality of objects can be respectively accommodated in the first accommodating slots, and second ends of the objects can be respectively accommodated in a plurality of second accommodating slots of the lower cover.

A packaging apparatus includes: an inner box of which upper side is open and capable of storing a first object; an outer box capable of storing a second object and the inner box disposed on the second object, and having a pair of inner flaps and a pair of outer flaps; a protective portion formed in the inner box to protect the first object, the protective portion being disposed between the first object and a portion that is included in a facing portion of the pair of outer flaps and that does not overlap with the pair of inner flaps in a state where the pair of inner flaps and the pair of outer flaps are closed; and a pressing portion formed in at least any one of the inner box and the outer box to press the first object toward a bottom surface of the inner box.

There is provided a method of manufacturing a protective packaging structure comprising the steps of providing a moulded structure comprising an attachment surface, the moulded structure including a recessed portion defining a shock absorbing region, applying the moulded structure to a packaging substrate using the attachment surface, and configuring the substrate to form the protective packaging structure. A protective packaging comprising a moulded structure based on paper plate technology is also disclosed.
