How to Pack Fragile Items Safely Using Bubble Mailers
Pack fragile items safely in bubble mailers with these proven techniques.
Preparing fragile items
Quick answer
Wrap fragile items individually, centre in the mailer, ensure no contact with mailer walls, and seal firmly. The shake test is essential: sealed mailer should produce no sound or movement. For multi-item orders, wrap each piece separately. Choose a mailer size that leaves 10-20mm clearance on all sides after the wrapped item is inserted.
