Why You Should Have Spundbound Polypropylene Products

Foam packaging is like a superhero. While it doesn’t wear a cape, it protects your items from being damaged in the event they’re jostled or dropped during shipping. Foam packaging can also take many forms to fit your shipping needs. As a national packaging supplier, we sell foam pouches, sheets, and tubing. We also offer anti-static packing foam for electronics, protecting workers from electrostatic discharge.

What Is Spunbond Polypropylene?

The name “spunbond polypropylene” doesn’t exactly roll off the tongue. It does, however, give you clues about what the actual product is.

To make spunbond polypropylene, we bond together spun filaments of fibers. This creates a uniform web of material that can be used in protective packaging.

That explains “spunbond” — but what is polypropylene? Essentially, polypropylene is a type of plastic first synthesized in the 1950s. It is very durable and resistant to stress, making it a component in many of the products we use in our everyday lives, including:

  • Prescription bottles
  • Food containers
  • Trash cans
  • Prescription bottles
  • Food containers
  • Trash cans

In addition to being a highly versatile material, polypropylene is also recyclable. That makes spunbond polypropylene one of the best protective packaging products you can choose if you’re interested in eco-friendly packaging.

Protecting Your Packages

When shipping products, spunbond polypropylene is best suited for surfaces that don’t require cushioned protection. 

Spunbond polypropylene doesn’t shield products from sharp impact during transportation. Instead, it ensures that nothing scratches the surface of your product. That makes it a great product when shipping items such as:

  • Electronics
  • Car appliances (side mirrors, steering wheels, etc.)
  • Wood furniture

At Premier Protective Packaging, we offer bags, sheets, sleeves, and tubing of spunbond polypropylene so you can find the right product for your shipping needs. Be sure to do proper testing for your particular needs to make sure your specific surfaces will be protected.
