ABSTRACT:
A high impact resistant package system 10 for a container of fragile products, such as X-ray cassettes, has a plurality of shock absorbing polyethylene plastic foam corner protector members 12 mounted on corner edges 14,16,20,22 of the container. Alternatively, a flexible material layer 50 overwraps the product container 18 and corner protector members 12, thereby forming a unitized package system. Portions of the corner protector members 12 extend beyond the corner edges 14,16,20,22 and sides of the container so as to fully absorb exposure to shock during handling and shipment. In an alternative embodiment, the flexible layer 50 is provided with a peelable strip 40. An end portion 42 of the strip 40 is allowed to extend through an aperture 44 formed in the flexible layer 50. In this embodiment, access to the container is gained by grasping the end portion 42 of strip 40 and pulling it away from the container 18.
