Hello,
Here is a manual for software for commercial packaging - shipping companies.
 
"...The Packaging Expert is a tool to assist a Mail and Parcel Center (MPC) in properly packing and pricing the packaging for items customers bring into to the MPC store. Containers that can be configured are various styles of corrugated boxes and crates. Packaging that can be configured are wraps such as bubble wrap or polly foam sheeting, loosefill such as peanuts and paper, and Foam in Place.
 
 
Brief quote (page 13) from the detailed PDF about packing requirements
 
"...Material Thickness Factors
􀂉 Minimum Thickness: Since Styrofoam is 1 inch thick and 1 layer is our minimum so enter 1 inch.
If you wanted to always have at least 2 inches of Styrofoam when you use this packaging, then
enter 2 inches here.
􀂉 Maximum Thickness: The most Styrofoam that makes sense is 4 inches or 4 layers. I entered 4 inches...."
 
Best wishes, Barbara Hass, retired librarian
