ABSTRACT:
A packaging kit for the immobilization of an article to be shipped, which kit comprises a base sheet of selected width and length sufficient to hold the article being packaged, the base sheet characterized by a horizontal fold line extending substantially across the base sheet, which permits the base portion to be folded inwardly to receive an article to be packaged on the base sheet. The sheet has a pair of spaced-apart opposite end portions having two or three parallel spaced-apart fold lines perpendicular to the horizontal central fold line, the fold lines adapted to move the end portions between a generally flat position and a folded V-shape or Z-shape position. The base sheet has at least two pairs of spaced-apart aligned notches on either side of the base portion. The kit includes a film tube material of selected dimensions and length, adapted to cover at least a substantial portion of the article to be immobilized on the base portion, and having a one and other end, which ends are folded around the ends of the article, and then tucked into the side notches on the base sheet, thereby completely immobilizing the article. The end portions are then folded to further immobilize the article and provide for a secure, suspended shipping position for the article within a shipping container.
