A method of manufacturing a packaging structure. The packaging structure includes a first ply having a first end, a second end, and a first width extending between the first and second ends, a plurality of second plies, and a third ply. The method includes adhering the first ply, the one second ply, the other second ply, and the third ply. The method further includes wrapping the one second ply around the first end of the first ply and not the second end of the first ply, wrapping the other second ply around the second end of the first ply and not the first end of the first ply, and wrapping the third ply around the first ply and the plurality of second plies to form a flat paperboard structure of approximately the first width. Moreover, the method includes bending the flat paperboard structure to form the packaging structure.

Wrapped paperboard packaging

A packaging structure and methods of manufacturing a packaging structure. The packaging structure, for example, an edge protector, a corner board, etc., may generally include a first ply having a first width, a second ply having a second width, and a third ply having a third width wider than the first width and the second width. The second ply may be wrapped around at least one end of the first ply, and the third ply may be wrapped around the first ply and the second ply. The third ply may overlap at a portion (e.g., an intermediate portion, an apex, etc.) of the packaging structure.
