ABSTRACT:
The packing protector is formed from an elongated strip of flexible cushioning material having an L-shaped cross section defining a vertical wall and a vertical wall. Transversal folding lines are provided in the strip to fold it in the shape of the packing protector. The folding line is formed by a groove spanning transversally on an inner side surface of the vertical wall. The groove is associated with a V-shaped folding cutout in the horizontal wall shaped to form two matching surfaces which are brought adjacent to each other when the strip is folded, thereby forming a unified wall. One of the two matching surfaces includes a male coupling interlockable with a female coupling in the other matching surface to keep the strip once folded in the form of the packing protector. A packing protector according to the present invention has the advantage of being easy and simple to ship to the user or purchaser in great amounts, as the unfolded strips can be easily piled up for the delivery. And once it is ready to be used, the strip has the advantage of being very easy and simple to be folded into the shape of the packing protector.
