FIG. 1 shows a perspective view of a cardboard box 2 including a protective material 1 according to the first embodiment of the present invention. The cardboard box 2 is of the A type orange box type, and includes a pair of

outer lids

21a and 21b and a pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b. In the packing procedure, first, after the contents are stored, the pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b are closed, and then the pair of

outer lids

21a and 21b are closed. And an adhesive tape etc. are affixed on the butt | matching part of a pair of

outer lids

21a and 21b, and packing is completed. Here, the A type orange box type corrugated cardboard box 2 is illustrated, but for example, it may be a tatami type tadpole type.

In other words, the cardboard box 2 that can suitably use the protective material 1 according to the present invention is a rectangular parallelepiped that includes a pair of

outer lids

21a and 21b and a pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b and is rectangular in plan view. In this type, even if the pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b are closed, their ends do not collide, and there are contents that are not covered by them. Therefore, the contents not covered by the pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b are exposed when the pair of outer lids 1a and 1b are opened.

The protective material 1 according to the present invention is inserted into the cardboard box 2. The protective material 1 includes a top surface 11 and a pair of

flaps

12a and 12b that are provided on at least one of the opposite sides of the top surface 11 and bent downward. In FIG. 1, the pair of

flaps

12a and 12b are provided on the side facing the pair of

inner lids

22a and 22b of the cardboard box 2. However, depending on the nature of the contents and the manner in which the cardboard box 2 is stored, It may be provided on the side facing the

outer lids

21a, 21b, or may be provided on both sides, that is, on all four sides of the top surface 11.
