Protective packaging materials and equipment

Protective packaging materials from manufacturer Viskom

Viskom is a Ukrainian online store for protective packaging and packing equipment. We help online shops, warehouses and manufacturers deliver goods intact — from a small parcel with ceramics to cargo in a container or railcar. We sell wholesale and retail, and you can reach our managers in the online chat on the site.

Paper for packing

The core of the catalogue is kraft paper. We manufacture honeycomb Honeycomb ourselves: it is 70 g/m² kraft with slits that expands into a volumetric mesh and cushions impacts as well as film. Alongside it are Bubble Paper, kraft paper in rolls 30, 50 and 70 cm wide, printed rolls, kraft in sheets, textured and gift paper, plus a paper honeycomb sleeve. For delicate wrapping there is tissue paper and velvet paper; for food packaging and production — parchment, cellulose and siliconised paper; for the office — office paper.

Tape and ribbons

In the kraft tape section you will find self-adhesive paper, water-activated and tamper-evident tape, plus dispensers. Ordinary adhesive tape comes transparent, coloured, masking and double-sided. Separately there is satin ribbon for gifts, cash-register tape and anti-slip interlayer tape.

Boxes, envelopes and bags

Cardboard boxes can be chosen by use (for shoes, cosmetics, candles, books, pizza), by colour, by parcel weight from 0.5 to 30 kg, or bought wholesale; there are also self-assembly boxes and gift boxes. For light shipments — envelopes and bags: security bags, zip bags, kraft bags, Bubble Paper Mailers. The catalogue also has courier bags, doy-pack pouches, a paper corner bag, corrugated cardboard and cardboard folders in A3–A0 formats.

Protection and void fill

Empty space in a box is filled with AirWave air cushions and bubble wrap. Goods on a pallet are secured with stretch film; corners and surfaces are protected by foam polyethylene. For gift sets there are box fillers: wood wool, paper WaveFill and EcoPack, tissue shred, confetti and SpiralPack. A box can be tied with twine or rope made of jute, flax or cotton. For flowers and décor — textured «Kaffin» film and flower film and tracing paper; for food — cling film and sealing and packing films.

Cargo securing and warehouse

Dunnage bags are inflatable bags used to brace cargo in containers, railcars and trucks. Alongside them you will find cargo securing products, anti-slip mats, anti-slip interlayer paper and pallet netting. For bulk goods — big bags, liner bags and wagon bags with a capacity from 500 to 3000 kg for grain, cement, fertiliser, sand and more, plus polypropylene sacks. For the warehouse there is warehouse equipment: pallet jacks, stackers and hand trucks.

Labelling and equipment

In the self-adhesive labels section — kraft labels printed «Дякую», «Fragile», «Handmade», white and clear thermal-transfer labels and labels on A4 sheets; separately there are labels, stickers and tags. You can print them on label printers with ribbons Wax, Wax/Resin and Resin. Handheld Bentsai markers, applicators and label guns are collected under marking equipment. The CushionPack shredder turns old boxes into soft void fill right in your warehouse.

FAQ

How do I pack a fragile item for shipping?

Wrap each item separately in bubble wrap or Honeycomb paper in 2–3 layers. Place it in a box and add void fill on the bottom and between items so nothing moves inside. Leave 2–3 cm between the product and the walls.

What should I use to fill empty space in a box?

AirWave air cushions, crumpled kraft paper or paper void fill all work. The check is simple: close the box and shake it. If nothing moves inside, you have enough fill.

Which box should I choose: three-layer or five-layer?

Three-layer corrugated cardboard is usually enough for clothes, cosmetics and light goods. Take five-layer for heavy and fragile items, and for shipments where boxes are stacked on top of each other.

Why is paper tape better than regular tape?

Paper kraft tape does not need to be peeled off before disposal — the box goes to recycling with the tape on it. And water-activated tape soaks into the cardboard fibres: you cannot open such a box unnoticed and reseal it.

How do I protect a load on a pallet?

Wrap the pallet with stretch film from bottom to top with an overlap, and make the lower turns tighter. To keep boxes from sliding, place anti-slip paper between the rows. Secure heavy loads with strapping belts as well.

How can I make packaging more eco-friendly?

Replace plastic with paper: bubble wrap with honeycomb paper, plastic tape with paper tape, and plastic void fill with kraft. The recipient can throw such packaging into paper recycling together with the box.
