Why Convert Waste Cardboard Into Packaging?
Reuse Material Already on Site — Convert suitable waste cartons into protective packaging instead of storing them for collection while purchasing separate void-fill material.
Reduce Packaging and Disposal Costs — Producing cushioning on demand can lower consumption of bought-in void fill and reduce the volume of bulky cardboard awaiting disposal.
Replace Plastic-Based Protection — Elastic cardboard netting, strips and chips provide recyclable alternatives for wrapping, cushioning and filling empty space around products.
Match Capacity to the Operation — The range extends from compact bench machines producing up to 2m³/h to the 700mm industrial model rated at up to 15m³/h.

Frequently Asked Questions
The correct model depends on the volume and size of cardboard being processed, required output, available space and electrical supply. Severn Packaging can review sample cartons and daily usage to recommend an appropriate machine.
Elastic net expands into a flexible cushioning sheet for wrapping and interleaving. Strips create longer pieces for cushioning and filling. Chips create loose void-fill pieces for filling space around products. Available cut formats vary by model.
The current manufacturer specification states that suitable Hyper Shredder configurations can process cardboard containing staples. The cartons should still be checked for unsuitable metal, plastic straps and other foreign objects before feeding.
Yes. The range includes a connection for dust extraction, with dedicated HEPA extraction equipment available as an option for a cleaner working area.
Continuous-duty capability depends on the model and electrical configuration. Compact single-phase machines are rated for extended operation, while selected three-phase industrial versions are intended for continuous high-volume use.
Yes. We can assess your cardboard, product-protection requirements and packing volume, then recommend a suitable model and output format. Product and material trials are advised before final specification.
