How do you pack fragile items to move?

It’s not uncommon for trucks to be packed so tightly that things get dented or scratched. This is why it’s so important that you carefully pack fragile items so they arrive intact at their destinations. As a bubble manufacturer, we have all the shipping supplies you need to help your business thrive.

You’ll need the following to pack and ship fragile items:

What is the best packaging material?

The best packaging materials for your company depend on the products you need to ship. For example, electronics need pink anti-static foam or bubble to prevent electrostatic discharge while they’re being transported to their destinations. Likewise, custom foam inserts are best for shipping items that are fragile and/or irregularly shaped. If you’re unsure what shipping materials are best for your products, don’t hesitate to reach out to our bubble manufacturer.

Below is a list of some of the most common packing materials our customers use for shipping fragile items. Keep in mind that we offer many more packaging products to help your company prevent shipping damage.

Pink Anti-Static Foam or bubble

Pink anti-static foam or bubble is used to prevent electronics from building up electrostatic discharge. Electrostatic discharge is what happens when two objects come into contact and build up an electrostatic charge. Not only can electrostatic discharge damage your shipment, but it can also increase the risk of shock injury for workers. Call us today to learn how anti-static bubble and foam can help protect your future shipments from electrostatic discharge.

Bubble Out Bags with Lip and Tape

Our bubble out bags are secured by lip and tape, which means you’ll be able to keep small fragile items contained during shipping. The last thing you want is for small items (such as jewelry) to move around too much or get mixed up with other items during shipping. Sealable bubble bags prevent this from happening.

Custom Foam Inserts

Custom foam inserts are perfect when you need to ship items that are fragile and/or irregularly shaped. We’re able to design and make foam inserts that are unique to the product you need to ship. That way, fragile items are better protected from impact damage during shipping. It’s difficult for a fragile item to be jostled when it’s secured by custom foam on all sides.
