Shock proof cushioning

When sending delicate items – which are often expensive – out to customers, it is essential that businesses have the right type of cushioning, and especially where the products themselves do not have additional packaging to provide cushioning. Sending wine bottles, and parts for computers such as hard drives, or tech like mobile phones or laptops through the post or with a courier is essential, but the nature of sending through the post is that rough handling, and drops are an inevitable risk.

In order to protect these more delicate items, shock proof cushioning is essential. These specialist cushion pouches are designed to hold the products in place inside the outer packaging, and to help ensure that the product can withstand accidental drops much more effectively than solutions like bubble wrap or polystyrene.

Our shock proof cushioning is provided deflated for efficient storage, and requires inflating using an air pump. The advanced design of our shock proof cushioning pouches is that if one inflated pillar is damaged, the others will not be affected – helping to keep the product intact.

Not only does our shock proof cushioning protect from accidental damage, but they can also help keep products free from dust. They’re not completely watertight, but they will certainly help to keep products like mobile phones dry when they are being delivered during rainy weather.

We’ve designed our shock proof cushion pouches to be made from recycled plastics, to minimise the environmental impact, and the air pouches can be customised for use with different products.

If you’re buying shock proof cushioning for your business, you’ll also need either a manual air pump, or an air inflator – which one is right for you will depend on the number of orders that you’re sending each day.

What is a standard mailing bag?

Our standard polythene bags are our best value mailing sacks, available in a large selection of sizes to suit a variety of products and purposes. The 55 micron thick grey material grants a reasonable degree of strength while remaining very lightweight to minimise postal costs. Your postage and packing outgoings can be accurately calculated thanks to the sizing table which corresponds with Royal Mail’s PiP guidelines. Intuitive practicality is embedded into the design with the 40mm lip that includes a peel-&-seal strip. This feature eliminates the need for tape, simplifying the whole packing process for increased efficiency and ease. These qualities are indispensable within a busy dispatch operation, promoting the fast functioning of an ecommerce business. Moreover, tape dispensers or cutting tools can be removed from a pack station, aiding organisation. To display delivery information, these standard mailing bags are commonly purchased with items from our comprehensive range of multi-purpose labels. Are the polythene bags eco-friendly? The grey polythene is made from recycled materials, making it a low-cost and environmentally friendly option. The extremely light weight further promotes the protection of our planet as it means that more parcels can be loaded onto a single vehicle, hence economising that space and reducing the overall carbon footprint of the process. It is worth noting that, as a result of the recycled content, the shade of grey may vary slightly from the images. Can you reuse a mailing bag? These plastic mailing bags are made with a minimum amount of recycled material to suit their single-use purpose and hence, are not designed for reuse. However, there is nothing stopping a customer from reusing a grey mailing bag if it retains its high quality condition. What are grey mailing bags used for? Thanks to the wide range of sizes supplied by Kite, the standard postal pouches can carry a broad selection of products, making them suitable for various industries. The large letter sizes are perfect for sending out clothing, literature or textiles while the larger parcels are typically used for bulky or boxed items. The opaque exterior renders the envelopes suitable for sending out confidential materials too. A polythene mailing sack is a great universal product with a variety of uses, making it an ideal versatile resource for companies sending out a range of different items. The flat-pack and ultra-thin arrival aids this end by conserving warehouse space. recycling code 4 Click here for our recycling guide
