Pack your goods with bubble mailers

By: Rick Landreaux

This article focuses on the use of bubble mailers, how they occurred, what their advantages are and where you can buy them online.

The Internet is having a tremendous impact on the way we do business, bringing the entire world and all people in it into one big market, where buyers and sellers from different countries meet virtually. In order for the online business to remain successful and maintain the trust of the customers, sellers must make sure their products are shipped in time and without any damage. The shipping can be as important as the quality of the actual product.

Bubble mailers consist of a strong puncture resistant mail bag with bubbles filled with air. Due to their specifics, bubble mailers are a very effective shipping material, protecting your products against the hazards of shipping. Bubble mailers are extremely cost effective, because they are lightweight and require less postage than shipping boxes. There are also self-sealing bubble mailers that save valuable insertion and fastening time and offer added tampering security.

Bubble mailers are used to ship variety of things. Mostly, bubble mailers are used for the packaging of CD's, DVD's, cell phones, video games, cosmetics, jewelry, trading cards, hardware & tools, accessories. It should be pointed out that despite the fact that bubble mailers have excellent cushioning capabilities, they don't have any stacking strength. That's why, they are not recomended for shipping goods that can be easily crushed.

Bubble mailers are based on the Bubble Wrap technology patented by Sealed Air. Bubble wrap is a pliable transparent plastic with regularly spaced air-filled hemispheres (bubbles), which provide cushioning for precious or breakable items. The bubble wrap technology was invented by Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes, in 1957. As it with most innovations, this one also happened accidentally, when the two engineers were trying to create a textured plastic wallpaper.

When Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes realized the potential of their discovery, they went on to patent the technology and created the Sealed Air Corporation 1960. 47 years later, Sealed Air is still the leading company in its industry constantly innovating and providing consumers with improved materials. The bubble mailers from Sealed Air have higher initial thickness and fullness, and provide up to 30% greater protection. This is possible thanks to the new barrier layer introduced by Sealed Air, which is 100 times more resistant to the passage of air than even a thick single layer of polyethylene used by other brands.

Compared to other materials, bubble mailers have several main advantages. To start with, you get better value, because less packaging material is used. They are also reusable and recyclable which is a huge environmental benefit.

There are several main companies selling bubble mailers on the Internet - ShippingSupply.com, PackagingSupplies.com and SealedAir.com. ShippingSupply.com processes all orders within 24 hours and have 100% money back guarantee. The bubble techonology designed by Sealed Air provides up to 30% greater protection.
