Cell Style Isolation
Every mug or glass sits in its own pocket, so one broken shard or one sharp rim never touches its neighbour.
What we do
A mug is ceramic, weighted and unforgiving. Knocked against another mug in a box and it chips; dropped and it breaks. RPS EPS Insulation and Packaging makes individual molded mug sleeves, glassware trays and fragile item inserts that separate every piece from its neighbours.
Each item locks into its own EPS cell, isolated from shock, from its fellow items and from the carton walls. Giftware brands, ceramic mills and online gift sellers use this system to ship sets that arrive whole, with the glaze unmarked and the packaging looking as premium as the product.
Why EPS wins
Every mug or glass sits in its own pocket, so one broken shard or one sharp rim never touches its neighbour.
Handles are the first casualty in giftware. Our molded pockets take the pressure off the joint where they meet the body.
Rims and glaze stay clear of corrugated edges, cutting the small chips that make a mug unsellable.
Six, twelve and twenty four piece sets assemble from identical cells, speeding up the packing line.
EPS keeps gift parcels light, so online gift delivery stays affordable and fast.
A branded EPS cradle makes opening the box an experience, lifting the perceived value of the gift.
Our range
One piece sleeve for shipping a single mug in corrugated mailer.
Dual pocket trays that keep cup and saucer separate yet together.
Deep cell supports for glasses, tumblers and crystal stemware.
Tall molded sleeves that stop slender pieces rocking in the box.
Print side protection so logos and branding arrive untouched.
Custom insert trays that present gift collections in one box.
How we work
We measure the mug closely and study its dimensions, weight and fragile zones before planning the mold geometry.
A dedicated EPS mold is engineered to match the exact profile of the mug for a snug, stable fit.
Raw EPS beads are pre expanded and conditioned to the density that suits the product weight.
Steam fuses the beads inside the mold, forming clean, precise protective shapes in one piece.
Each molded piece is checked for dimensional accuracy, bead fusion and surface finish.
Fit and drop tests confirm the cushions hold the product steady through real transit conditions.
Once approved, the mold runs in volume and batches are delivered to your line on schedule.
