A free standing cargo spacer which is adapted to be assembled in situ from a honeycomb body and an initially flat panel. The honeycomb body is shipped collapsed and is expanded during assembly. The panel is bent during assembly to extend partially around the expanded honeycomb, and is interengaged therewith by means of interfittable tabs and slots to support and maintain the expanded form of the honeycomb and hold the panel in bent form.

A cargo spacer adapted to be self-supporting when standing on a floor in a vertical position, comprising an expansible honeycomb-type filler formed of stacked flat elongated strips which are more resistant to deformation by forces applied thereto edgewise in a direction perpendicular to the length of the strip than to forces perpendicular to the plane of the strip, the cells defined by said honeycomb having their axes extending in said direction, characterized by the combination which includes a wrapper panel having a flat wall proportioned to overlie the ends of the cells defined by the honeycomb, said panel also having sidewalls bendable to extend perpendicularly from opposite side edges of said flat wall adjacent the sides of the expanded honeycomb filler, whereby the wrapper panel is of generally U-section when the side walls are so bent, and fastening means for securing each of said side walls of the wrapper panel to the filler when the latter is expanded, whereby the panel holds the filler in the expanded condition and the fastening means holds the side walls of the panel perpendicular to said flat wall.
