Instapak® Foam-in-Bag Packaging

Foam-in-Bag Process

Foam-in-Bag: Foam-filled bags can be created in a variety of sizes to be used for void fill, cushinoning, blocking and bracing and molded cushions.


1. With the touch of a button, the operator selects the proper bag length and amount of Instapak® foam.	2. The operator places the foam-filled bag into the carton and nestles the products onto the expanding cushion.	3. A second foam-filled bag is placed on top of the product, and the carton flaps are closed.	4. The foam-filled bag expands around the product and against the carton to form a top cushion.

Foam-in-Bag Molding: Custom-designed cushions that provide optimum protection are produced quickly and easily using any one of our Instapak® foam-in-bag molding systems.


1. With the touch of a button, the system quickly dispenses an Instapak® foam-filled bag.	2. When placed into the mold enclosure, an on-board vacuum draws the foam-filled bag into the cavity.	3. Aided by a built-in injection system, the operator removes the finished cushion from the mold cavity where it has been allowed to fully expand.	4. In less than a minute, a cost-effective engineered packaging cushion is ready to protect your product during shipping and handling.
