Have you experienced waiting for an item to be delivered to you, receiving it and getting disappointed that the item is damaged? If your answer is yes, then you might blame the courier service which delivered your package. However, the courier is only partly to blame for the damage. The main culprit here is the company that sends you their product without using bubble mailers to protect it.
Suppose you own a company that sells and delivers products to your customers. In that case, it is part of your responsibility to make sure that the packaging of your products protects the items during the delivery and transport phase until it reaches your customers. If your company sells and delivers small items such as books, computer hardware, mobile phones, jewellery & accessories, and video games; bubble mailers are effective packaging that can keep your products protected.
What are Bubble Mailers?
Bubble mailers are packaging based on the patented Bubble Wrap Technology by Sealed Air, where a pliable transparent plastic is filled with air to produce regular-shaped bubbles that provide extra cushioning for fragile items. However, with the desire to reduce the use of plastics in the market, the new generation of bubble mailers avoid transparent plastics and instead use compostable paper materials that break down easily.
What are the Advantages of Using Compostable Mailers?
There are many benefits that your company can get when you use compostable bubble mailers for delivering your products.
Positive Branding
Your company will be seen as an organization that is helping to save the environment by using eco-friendly packaging. Your use of biodegradable packaging can be part of your Corporate Social Responsibility or CSR program. An effective CSR program will help your company develop positive branding.
Advertising
You can arrange with a bubble mailer manufacturer to customize your mailers with your company logo and colours. You can also include other texts on your mailers that will convey your message to consumers.
Increase Consumer Base
Most consumers born after 1990 are already aware of the climate change problem and how multinational corporations are largely to blame for it. When asked to choose between two companies with similar products, most millennial consumers choose the company that uses sustainable packaging.
Customer Satisfaction
Your customers will be satisfied when they receive your products without damages. Likewise, you can reuse most compostable mailers. There are bubble mailers that feature a double adhesive strip where customers can reuse the bag by cutting the used flap.
Cost Savings
Your company can save up on packaging costs with reusable bubble mailers. For example, when you need documents to be signed by remote staff, you can send the documents using bubble mailers, and your staff can reuse these mailers to send the documents back to you. Likewise, you can lower down the cost of mailers when you order them in bulk.
Biodegradable and Compostable
Mailers that have been used numerous times may be discarded and disposed of easily. Biodegradable bubble mailers will break down within 120 to 150 days in a compost pit. When disposing of mailers, you can shred them or cut them into smaller pieces to hasten their decomposition.
Consumers want to get their items in one piece. Likewise, consumers are looking for companies that advocate sustainable practices. Using bubble mailers will benefit your company in more ways than one.
