What is Bubble Cushioning Wrap?

Bubble Cushioning Wrap is a pliable transparent plastic material that is used when packaging fragile items, as it provides a cushion during transportation of the items.

Bubble Cushioning Wrap is most often formed from polyethylene film and some types of the wrap have a lower permeation barrier film, which allows for a longer lifespan for the material and a greater resistance to loss of air in vacuums. The bubbles can be as small as 6 millimeters in diameter and up to one inch or more. These differences are specific to the size of the items in transit. The bubbles offer most of the protection, however the plastic material itself can provide some protection for the item.

Bubble Cushioning Wrap Applications

Bubble Cushioning Wrap offers the ultimate cushioning for fragile items. This is due in large part because of the bubbles of air, which suspend the product in the box. The wrap acts as an absorbent for the shock and protects the in-transport items from being damaged.

Bubble Cushioning Wrap can come in a variety of sizes, too, so finding the perfect size and fit for your needs is not a problem. A heavy-duty Bubble Cushioning Wrap is also an option when distributing machine parts, motors, and other heavy products. The durability of Bubble Cushioning Wrap makes it an ideal packaging material.

What is Foam Packaging?

Instead of large, poppable bubbles, like the sort you get in Bubble Cushioning Wrap, foam sheets are filled with thousands of tiny air cells that cushion a product without the added bulk. This is due to the fact that the foam is thinner and allows you to wrap products and stack them. With this extra space, there is more room for packaging equipment, while still protecting individual items from being damaged.

What Foam Packaging Provides

Foam packaging provides added thermal insulation to protects items that are temperature sensitive. If you are looking to stack items, like dishes, then pre-cut foam sheets are what you are looking for. This sort of process will save you time, as there is no need to wrap each dish individually and can stack the items into the box.

The foam serves as a handy packaging material. It can come in a variety of sizes and styles, including:

foam sheets
rolls
corners
edges

This variety makes foam packaging an easy material to work with and is why it is used across many different industries.
