12 January 2026
Westside Packaging Systems presents the MINI AIR® CLASi2 air cushion machine to boost protection, reduce costs, & upgrade your packaging strategy for 2026.
Australian businesses continue to face increasing pressure to protect shipments, maintain packaging efficiency, and manage rising warehouse costs. As fulfilment demands grow, organisations must turn to smarter and more reliable packaging solutions. Investing in an air cushion machine has become a practical and forward-looking strategy for companies aiming to improve both productivity and product protection in 2026.
Importance of Using Protective Packaging
Protective packaging plays a critical role in ensuring that products reach customers safely and in excellent condition. With higher shipping volumes and growing customer expectations, inadequate packaging can lead to product damage, increased returns, added costs, and reputational risks. Businesses require dependable packaging solutions that not only provide superior cushioning but also support operational efficiency.
High-quality protective packaging helps businesses achieve:
• Reduced product breakage during transport
• A professional presentation that enhances customer satisfaction
• Lower return and replacement expenses
• Improved brand reliability through consistent protection
• Greater operational efficiency through streamlined packing processes

Designed to meet the evolving needs of modern Australian businesses, the MINI AIR® CLASi2 delivers a compact yet powerful solution for protective packaging. This unit weighs only 5 kilograms and is engineered for versatility, making it suitable for different packaging environments. It produces both air pillows and air bubbles using compatible film rolls, providing flexible cushioning for a wide range of products.
The machine features adjustable air volume and temperature settings, allowing staff to tailor cushioning to the fragility or size of each product. With a production speed of up to 12 metres per minute and a compact footprint, it supports faster workflows and fits seamlessly into any packing area.
