A system for creating and dispensing cushioning dunnage is small and permits flexible installation configuration options for a single or multiple packing stations. A compact apparatus (1) of the system is capable of being pivotall y mounted as a unit on a stand (2) and includes a motor (3) and a material feeding arrangement (4) driven by the motor (3) for pulling material from a supply roll (5) of the material supported on a stand (28) of the system, and feeding it through the apparatus (1). A plurality of material shaping member s (9 and 11-14) upstream of the feeding arrangement shape the material in the apparatus to convert it into a continuous strip of cushioning product. The feeding arrangement (4) includes cooperating feed rollers & and 7), at l east one of which is a rotary cutting die having a plurality of cutting blades (7 4) on its surface for cutting slits (87) in the material at spaced locations along the length of the material to allow an operator to manually rip a desired length of cushioning product from the material being dispensed from the apparatus.
