RECOU – Protective packaging for automotive and other applications

RECOU is a cushioning material based on grain husks for protective packaging and inserts. The design is adapted to component geometry and the intended shipping process.

Material and use

Grain husks are a by-product of food processing. The dimensionally stable material can be used for inlays, corner protection or full-surface padding. RECOU single-use inlays are designed for processes without return transport of the inlay.

Project-specific design

Shape and dimensions matched to the component
Assess protection against expected transport loads
Select CKD inlays, corner protection or fiber husk padding for the application
Agree disposal of the specific packaging with the relevant waste management provider

Automotive examples

Possible applications include CKD inlays for headlights, door panels or electronic modules. Surface, load and handling requirements for other products need to be assessed for each project.
