Versatile pallet protection
Short Length Moisture Resistant Edge Protectors protect carton and pallet edges from strap damage during storage and transport. Made from cardboard covered with moisture-resistant poly-coated white paper, these white edge protectors suit cold stores, damp areas, high humidity and pallets exposed to wet weather. Available in 100 mm and 150 mm lengths, with 35 mm and 60 mm edge depths and 3 mm or 4 mm board thicknesses.
Sold in packs of 500, priced per pack.
Where do Short Length Moisture Resistant Edge Protectors work best?
These white edge protectors suit palletised goods, cartons and strapped loads that face damp storage, cold store handling or high humidity during transport.
- Place them beneath pallet strapping to spread tension and stop straps cutting into carton edges.
- Use them in cold stores where condensation and humidity can weaken standard cardboard edge protection.
- Fit them to pallets exposed to damp weather conditions during loading, unloading or temporary outside storage.
- Add them to variable or unsteady pallet loads to help reinforce corners and improve load stability during handling.
Not for
- Long pallet edges that need continuous protection along the full load height. Choose Edge protectors for pallets for extended edge coverage.
- Applications that require plastic, metal or impact-resistant corner protection rather than cardboard-based pallet edge guards.
- Fully waterproof outdoor storage. These guards use moisture-resistant poly-coated paper, but they're not sold as a waterproof cover for prolonged open-air exposure.

Product FAQs
How do these edge protectors prevent carton damage?
Place each protector between the strap and the carton edge. The rigid cardboard profile spreads the pressure from the strapping, which helps reduce crushed corners, torn board and strap marks during transport.
Can I use them in cold storage?
Yes. The cardboard has a moisture-resistant poly-coated white paper covering, so it suits cold stores and other humid environments better than standard uncoated cardboard edge protection.
How many do I need per pallet?
That depends on the strapping pattern and the number of corners or strap contact points you want to protect. As a minimum, cover every point where strapping meets a carton edge.
Are they suitable for reinforcing cartons as well as pallets?
Yes. Use them to strengthen vulnerable carton corners, especially where the load will be strapped, stacked or handled in damp conditions.
Also useful
- Pallet edge guards let you compare edge protection options for different load sizes and handling risks.
- Strapping help secure pallet loads once the corners have the right protection in place.
- Pallet wrap adds load containment around palletised goods after strapping and edge protection.
Our product advice
Edge Protectors stabilise, protect, and reinforce pallet corners, carton edges and products against shocks and scratches during transport and storage. Edge Protectors also help to avoid damage to your consignments caused by tight strapping.
3 types of use:
- Narrow edge: for protecting corners of light, palletised boxes
- Regular edge: for protection of mid-heavy palletised box corners
- Broad edge: for enhancing stability of loads and horizontal application
Depending on how you use them, Edge Protectors can offer a whole host of benefits:
Stabilise uniform pallet loads: place beneath strapping securely
Internal use: place within corners and edges of the box internally to reinforce cartons
