Pregis, a global leader in protective packaging, mailing & bagging, and flexible packaging solutions, has introduced Pregis EasyPack® Strata, a high-speed on-demand paper system designed to produce structured paper pads for enhanced void fill, light cushioning and full cushioning packing applications. The system expands the Pregis on-demand paper portfolio with a solution built to meet the pace, variability and throughput demands of modern fulfillment operations.

Strata forms structured paper pads that optimize space within the box, enabling more uniform packing and reducing unnecessary material use. In enhanced void fill applications, these pads maintain a more consistent form than traditional void fill, improving material efficiency. The system also supports higher productivity in fast-paced packing environments, delivering dispensing speeds of up to 60 inches per second.

“Fulfillment operations need packaging systems that will keep up with throughput demands without adding complexity,” explains Joey Phister, President of Protective Products at Pregis. “EasyPack Strata was developed to give operators the ability to adjust protection levels in real time, improving throughput, reducing waste and creating a faster, more intuitive packing process.”

EasyPack Strata supports a range of facility layouts and operational models by integrating into individual packing stations as well as centralized packaging lines. The system reduces training time and improves day-to-day workflow efficiency through operator-centric design, featuring intuitive controls, ergonomic loading and automatic and manual operating modes.

A movable, magnetic human-machine interface allows operators to position controls on the front or sides of the system to support different workstation layouts. That same level of control extends to material selection, allowing operators to choose single- or dual-ply paper and adjust basis weight to fine-tune protection levels based on each product’s packaging requirements. This supports cost control by preventing over padding, while reducing damage by delivering reliable cushioning where it matters most.

The system runs Pregis EasyPack® paper made from 100 percent recycled content, including Forest Stewardship Council® FSC certified options. This helps meet curbside recyclability expectations and the packaging-related ESG requirements set by many large shippers and retailers.

With its combination of speed, versatility and operator-focused design, EasyPack Strata is designed to help packaging decision-makers improve efficiency, protect products, reduce damage and deliver a more consistent customer experience across fulfillment environments.

Pregis EasyPack Strata is available now. To learn more, visit the EasyPack Strata product page on the Pregis website.
