ABSTRACT:
An edge or corner protector, or corner post support structure, for protecting an edge or corner region of an article, product, package, or palletized load, comprises a core member having leg members disposed at a 90.degree. angle with respect to each other, and laminated layers of paper disposed upon interior surface portions of the leg members with the laminated layers having different width dimensions so as to render the leg with different thickness dimensions as one proceeds away from the apex portion of the edge or corner protector and toward the distal edge portions of the edge protector. The thickest portions of the leg members are disposed within the vicinity of the distal edge portions such that the thinnest portions define a gap region for housing the corner or edge portion of the article or product while the thickest portions engage the sides of the article or product. Packaging strapping forces are relieved within the corner or edge region and are redistributed upon portions of the strapping remote from the corner or edge region.
