To Preserve and Protect: How Poly Mailers protect my Product<\/span><\/h1>\n

\"\"<\/span><\/p>\n

As far as customer experience goes, protecting the product is always the priority. This means that every component of your product packaging should be selected with this goal in mind. No matter how big or small an item is, it needs to arrive at its destination in perfect shape.<\/span><\/p>\n

One of the best ways to protect your products shipping them in poly mailers. Poly Mailers are affordable, lightweight, highly durable, and, most importantly, protect items against dirt, dust, moisture, and tampering.<\/span><\/p>\n

In this article, let\u2019s go into detail about what poly mailers are, how they can protect your product from the warehouse to the customer\u2019s front door, and why they\u2019re an essential part of your product packaging toolbox.<\/span><\/p>\n

What are Poly Mailers?<\/span><\/h2>\n

<\/span><\/p>\n

Poly mailers are made of polyethylene, the most widely used plastic in the world. It is an affordable, lightweight, and impact-resistant material commonly used for packaging.<\/span><\/p>\n

Compared to other packaging options, like boxes, not only are Poly Mailers less expensive, but they have other cost saving benefits. Consider the costs to ship and space needed to store 1,000 boxes in your warehouse versus 1,000 Poly Mailers. The thin and flexible design keeps shipping costs low and limits their warehouse footpint. They\u2019ll also save time and money in packing expense. Poly mailers require no assembly, just grab and fill, plus they require no tape, they\u2019re self-sealing with a peel-and-stick adhesive that keeps contents secure and tamper-proof.<\/span><\/p>\n

How Polymers Protect Your Products?<\/span><\/h2>\n
    \n
  • Waterproof <\/strong>\u2013 As long as your poly mailers are sealed properly, they can stand up to harsh weather conditions while in transit. The material itself is resistant to water and moisture. Just don\u2019t go dunking it in a pool.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Tamper-resistant <\/strong>\u2013 The self-sealing tab of poly mailers completely sticks to the material, making it tamper-evident. It\u2019s also resistant to tears, ruptures, and punctures.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Durable <\/strong>\u2013 Aside from its water- and tamper-resistance features, polyethylene is also extremely durable. It\u2019s stronger than ordinary plastic bags and when pushed to its limits, would stretch rather than tear.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Provides extra protection<\/strong> \u2013 When using a shipping box, you can put products in a poly mailer inside the box for extra protection so that it doesn\u2019t rattle inside. It\u2019s a more economical way of product packaging as opposed to using more boxes. Common items packed and shipped inside poly mailers include remote controls, batteries, spare parts, and more.<\/span><\/li>\n
  • Reusable for returns<\/strong> \u2013 If your business has a return program in place, customers can simply use the same poly mailers to send back their orders.<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n

    What Can You Ship in a Polymer?<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Poly mailers provide plenty of versatility and can fit a wide variety of products. They come in a variety of sizes designed for shipments as small as a pair of socks to those as bulky as two hooded sweatshirts.<\/span><\/p>\n

    When shipping poly mailers as standalone packages, we recommend limiting contents to non-perishable products and non-fragile products. Some examples would be clothing, textiles, shoes, and certain thick documents. As long as none of the items protruding or delicate parts that could break, they can be shipped with poly mailers.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Plastic mailers also play nice with other packaging products. They are exceptional for separating items inside a shipping box, such as jewelry, small electronics, shoe boxes, and more. They can also be used as weatherproof protection for primary or secondary corrugated boxes during shipment.<\/span><\/p>\n

    Poly Mailers Always Have a Place in Product Packaging<\/span><\/h2>\n

    Poly mailers are an extremely versatile and valuable packaging material that every retail business should maximize. It\u2019s a packaging essential that can be used in almost every product line and industry. Don\u2019t skimp on protection when it comes to your products and your brand\u2019s reputation. Ship your products in poly mailers and make sure customers get what they\u2019re expecting, in perfect condition always.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
