Reflex cushioning material is a cost-effective and more sustainable alternative solution to foam materials for products sensitive to impact.
Nefab's Reflex cushioning material is a customizable protective packaging solution made from vacuum-formed high-density polyethylene (HDPE) that contains a high percentage of recycled materials. Customized Protective Performance The uniquely shaped Reflex cushioning material offers superior shock absorption compared to traditional foam materials (such as independent bubble foams like PE, EPE, EPP, and molded foams). It is individually designed to provide optimal protection for each product, is resistant to environmental stress, and maintains stable performance. Additionally, our experienced engineering team, thorough quality control, and advanced manufacturing technology ensure that we deliver highly reliable products verified through ISTA-certified lab testing. Nesting Performance Reflex cushioning material features high nesting capability, allowing multiple cushions to be efficiently stacked for storage. This enables up to 85% space savings compared to foam materials. Total Solution Reflex cushioning material is typically offered as part of a comprehensive packaging solution.

basic information
Reflex cushioning material is ideal for companies considering alternatives to foam materials for packaging and transporting high-value, impact-sensitive products typically weighing between 0.5kg and 50kg. Unlike some foam materials, vacuum-formed cushioning does not generate fine particles, making it suitable for use in cleanroom environments and data centers. Reflex cushioning material can be flexibly applied across various industries and applications, including data infrastructure, semiconductors, medical devices, and energy equipment.

Applications/Examples of results
Medical Field: Cushioning Material for Infusion Pumps Nefab has collaborated with global medical device manufacturers to enhance the sustainability of infusion pump packaging. By replacing large PE foam with Reflex HDPE cushioning material, CO₂ emissions were reduced by 62%, and total costs were also reduced by 30%. Data Communication Field: Cushioning Material for Data Infrastructure A major data infrastructure company partnered with Nefab to replace PE foam with HDPE vacuum-formed Reflex cushioning material. As a result, CO₂ emissions were reduced by 22%, and packaging costs were lowered by 6%. This demonstrates that the cushioning solution is both sustainable and cost-effective. Telecommunications Field: Cushioning Material for Base Station Transceivers A global telecommunications equipment manufacturer achieved significant packaging optimization by switching from PE foam to Reflex cushioning material for universal base station transceiver packaging. The change to HDPE end cap cushioning material resulted in a 47% reduction in CO₂ emissions globally and a 43% reduction in total costs.

Company information
Nefab is a company founded in Sweden in 1949, providing transport packaging, packaging materials, and related services. Today, we operate in 38 countries worldwide and serve customers across a wide range of industries, including automotive, aerospace, telecom and data equipment, power generation, medical devices, lithium-ion batteries, and semiconductors. Our concept is that packaging should not be viewed merely as a logistics cost. Instead, through optimized packaging design, we help improve efficiency across logistics, handling, storage, environmental performance, and operations, while optimizing total cost and reducing CO₂ emissions throughout production, transportation, and disposal processes. We are also able to provide concise reports outlining the cost reduction effects within the supply chain achieved through packaging improvements, as well as the CO₂ reduction benefits expected from adopting Nefab packaging solutions. In the packaging industry, interest in packaging compliance and supply chain management is increasing due to the mandatory disclosure of Scope 3 emissions and the implementation of the PPWR regulations in Europe. At Nefab, we can provide information regarding these industry trends and offer proposals tailored to each customer’s specific situation.
