AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Traditional paper-based packages and mailers with padding become bulky when empty, increasing storage and shipping costs and environmental impact due to their inability to be compressed flat.

Method used

A package formed from a paper-based sheet with overlapping portions featuring parallel displaced regions that inter-lock when compressed, allowing for a thinner profile when empty, using dies or molds to create symmetrical, interlocking displaced regions.

Benefits of technology

The package can be compressed to a thinner size, reducing storage and shipping costs while maintaining structural integrity and environmental efficiency.
