Abstract

Improved packaging materials for packaging multiple mattress spring cores together in a compressed stack, wherein the two ends of the stack are covered by end panels comprising a laminated paper stack panel that includes one or more layers of a stretchable paper called extensible kraft paper laminated together with a water soluble glue. The mattress spring cores are separated by an interleaving sheet comprising one layer of extensible kraft paper.

Claims (26)

1. A package of compressed mattress spring coils comprising a plurality of mattress spring coils positioned in a stack having two end panels positioned on each end of an outer side of the stack wherein the stack is compressed and strapped in a compressed condition:

wherein the mattress spring coils are each separated by a piece of interleaving paper;

wherein the end panels comprise a laminated paper stack panel wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes at least one layer of an extensible kraft paper;

wherein the laminated paper stack panel has a mullen from 200 psi to 600 psi; and

wherein the piece of interleaving paper separating the mattress spring coils comprises a layer of the extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

2. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 1 , wherein the extensible kraft paper has a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

3. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 1 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel comprises three layers of extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

4. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 1 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel comprises two layers of the extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft., laminated with a water soluble glue to one layer of a linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.

5. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 1 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel comprises one layer of the extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of about 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft. laminated with a water soluble glue to two layers of a linerboard, each layer of linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.

6. A package of compressed mattress spring coils comprising a plurality of mattress spring coils positioned in a stack having two end panels positioned on each end of an outer side of the stack wherein the stack is compressed and strapped in a compressed condition:

wherein the mattress spring coils are each separated by a piece of interleaving paper;

wherein the end panels comprise a laminated paper stack panel wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes at least one layer of an extensible kraft paper with a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft; and

wherein the laminated paper stack panel has a mullen from 100 psi to 800 psi; and

wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes at least two layers of the extensible kraft paper with a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

7. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 6 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes three layers of extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

8. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 6 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes two layers of extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft., laminated with a water soluble glue to one layer of linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.

9. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 6 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes one layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft. laminated with a water soluble glue to two layers of linerboard, each layer of the linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.

10. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 6 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel has a mullen from 250 psi to 400 psi.

11. A package of compressed mattress spring coils comprising a plurality of mattress spring coils positioned in a stack having two end panels positioned on each end of an outer side of the stack wherein the stack is compressed and strapped in a compressed condition:

wherein the mattress spring coils are each separated by a piece of interleaving paper;

wherein the end panels comprise a laminated paper stack panel wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes at least one layer of an extensible kraft paper with a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft; and

wherein the laminated paper stack panel has a mullen from 100 psi to 800 psi; and

wherein the laminated paper stack panel has a mullen from 250 psi to 400 psi.

12. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 11 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes three layers of extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft.

13. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 11 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes two layers of extensible kraft paper, each layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft., laminated with a water soluble glue to one layer of linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.

14. The package of compressed mattress spring coils according to claim 11 , wherein the laminated paper stack panel includes one layer of extensible kraft paper having a basis weight of 35-150 pounds per 3000 sq. ft. laminated with a water soluble glue to two layers of linerboard, each layer of the linerboard having a basis weight of 10-90 pounds per 1000 sq. ft.
