How does SCHAEFGUARD Custom Dunnage Protect Your Parts?
No matter what industry you’re in, SCHAEFGUARD offers top of the line protective packaging for parts protection. Our custom designed packaging and dunnage solutions meet automotive OEM container specifications, and also serve the appliance, electronics, medical device, military, pharmaceutical, and recreational vehicle industries.
What can we create to protect your product? Well, with our capabilities and product line — almost anything you need. Our capabilities include:
Our water jet cutting process can shape XLPE cross-linked polyethylene foam to be the perfect fit for your specific product dimensions.

We fabricate our molded foam dunnage solutions from expanded polypropylene or expanded polyethylene beads. This creates a lightweight foam that replicates the exact shape of your parts. This is especially useful because the foam offers high impact resistance and shock absorption for class “A” protection.

We can also create a SCHAEFGUARD dunnage system that offers ESD protection within anti-stat, conductive, and static dissipation ranges. We utilize thermoplastic resins, corrugated plastics, solid sheets, foams, and molded foams to customize a dunnage system to meet your specific needs.

Our experts can modify existing bulk bins to any size, streamlining your process and improving material handling. This solution helps your team pack or unload for assembly with ease and support line-side part sequencing. We can even customize them to feature wheels, vinyl drapes, and special dividers.

Soft textured woven and non-woven fabrics are utilized to design cell dividers, partitions, pouches, bags, bonnets, and curtains. This lightweight class “A” material offers high-density protection that won’t scratch your product.
