Our bubble wrap provides excellent protection for your valuable and breakable items. Great for void fill and cushioning, our quality bubble wrap helps protect against damage caused by vibration and abrasion that can occur during transit. Lighter than other forms of packaging material so you'll pay less for shipping. Each bubble is made with two layers of linear low density polyethylene for better resistance to puncture and better tensile strength. Helps to eliminate air seepage during your shipments.
How Buyers Actually End Up Using This
Bubble wrap enters workflows when breakage becomes inconsistent and hard to diagnose. It’s typically adopted after teams realize that void fill alone isn’t absorbing shock, especially for items with corners or uneven surfaces.
How to Choose the Right Option
Bubble size should match the risk profile of the item. Small bubbles conform to shapes and protect surfaces; larger bubbles absorb higher-impact drops. Roll width matters operationally—matching common carton sizes reduces trimming and material waste on the packing line.
Common Buying Mistakes to Avoid
Over-wrapping is a common problem. Adding more layers doesn’t always improve protection if bubbles are compressed incorrectly. Another issue is using bubble wrap as a void fill substitute, which often leads to shifting inside the box.
When This Isn’t the Best Tool
For heavy items, foam or molded cushioning provides more consistent protection. If the goal is stabilization rather than impact absorption, paper void fill or corrugated inserts may be more effective than bubble wrap.
Bubble Wrap FAQs
What’s the difference between small and large bubble wrap?
Small bubble wrap is ideal for delicate and lightweight items, while large bubble wrap offers more cushioning for heavier or bulkier products.
How much bubble wrap do I need?
Use 2–3 layers of bubble wrap for most items. Add more layers for extra fragile products to ensure adequate protection.
Does bubble wrap lose air during shipping?
Some air loss can happen over time, but quality bubble wrap is designed to retain air longer to maintain its protective cushioning.
Can bubble wrap be reused or recycled?
Yes. Bubble wrap can often be reused multiple times, and clean bubble wrap is recyclable as LDPE #4 where facilities accept it.
Should bubbles face inward or outward?
Bubbles should face inward toward the product to provide the most effective cushioning and protection.
