When people think of reusable packaging, they often focus on the external features — the durability of the box, its stackability, or the environmental benefits. But inside every great box is an often overlooked, yet essential component: the foam insert.

At Reusable Box, we design every insert with precision, purpose, and protection in mind.


🔍 What Are Foam Inserts and Why Do They Matter?

Foam inserts are custom-cut pieces of high-density foam placed inside your reusable box to house and protect your products. Think of them as tailored compartments that securely cradle each item, preventing movement, damage, and mishandling during transit.

They’re especially critical in sectors like:

  • Pharmaceutical and medical packaging (e.g. Escort Data Loggers)

  • Electronics and instrumentation

  • Military-grade or aerospace components

  • Film & TV kit transport


✅ The Reusable Box Approach to Foam Design

Every insert we create is made to match your product’s exact dimensions. That means:

  • No excess movement

  • Faster packing and unpacking

  • Reduced risk of damage

  • More consistent workflows across your supply chain

We can also design:

  • Multi-tiered inserts

  • Compartments for cables, accessories or documents

  • Colour-coded foam for visual identification

  • Water-resistant or antistatic foams, depending on application


♻️ Why Custom Foam + Reusable Box = Long-Term Gains

A well-designed foam insert extends the life of your packaging — and your product. Combined with our reusable outer boxes, the insert plays a big role in:

  • Minimising product damage

  • Reducing the need for replacement parts or reshipments

  • Lowering packaging waste

  • Creating a consistently professional appearance for your brand


🛠️ Real Example: Almac Pharmaceuticals

We recently helped Almac transport sensitive Escort Data Loggers using a custom two-tier reusable box. The top layer featured precision-cut foam inserts to secure the loggers, while the bottom layer housed their boxed units. The result? Faster, safer packing, and zero damage in transit.
