When it comes to packaging inserts, most people are familiar with various inner trays—such as sponge, EVA, pearl cotton, thermoformed, and paper trays. However, many tend to assume EVA is the most high-end option, which is actually a misconception. The choice of inner tray for product packaging should be determined by the specific type and properties of the product in question. For instance, premium-grade sponge is often more costly and sophisticated than EVA.

While both sponge and EVA are expensive and have a high-end appearance, certain paper trays can be even more elegant. What’s more, EVA and sponge are unsuitable for many edible products—making high-end paper trays the better choice for custom packaging. This is especially true for luxury packaging: the base paper used is typically high-quality with rich, attractive colors, a finish that EVA and sponge cannot complement. In contrast, matching such specialty paper with corresponding paper trays not only creates a cohesive, elegant look but also helps control costs.

Some may worry that paper trays lack sufficient hardness and stability, but these performance requirements can all be met through specialized structural design and material selection in custom packaging. Beyond a few niche applications, paper trays work well for most scenarios. High-end products often come with inner packaging anyway, which further mitigates any potential protection concerns.

In short, paper trays are an excellent choice for luxury custom packaging. A professional packaging manufacturer will undoubtedly create a satisfactory high-end paper inner tray tailored to your needs.
