Protective packaging with a pop of colour
Metallic bubble envelopes are a coloured, waterproof bubble-lined mailer for sending small e-commerce and promotional items with a branded finish. The fully laminated low-density 70 micron polyethylene outer keeps contents dry, while the bubble lining cushions light goods from jewellery to small artworks. These metallic bubble mailers come in a large letter format and weigh up to 24g depending on size, so they keep postage costs down. A peel-and-seal strip closes each bag in one motion for fast packing at peak. Made from at least 30% recycled material, in black, red, blue, pink and multicolour finishes.
Where do metallic bubble envelopes work best?
Metallic bubble envelopes, also sold as metallic padded envelopes, suit e-commerce and promotional senders who want light protection and a coloured, branded finish.
- Small online orders of jewellery, accessories and beauty items, where a coloured outer helps the parcel stand out on arrival.
- Printed items and small artworks, where the bubble lining protects flat, lightweight goods from knocks.
- Marketing and sample campaigns, where the waterproof outer material guards contents sent to many customers at once.
- Large letter despatch, where the slim format helps keep mailings within postal limits and costs down.
Not for
- Fragile, heavy or crush-sensitive goods. Use cardboard boxes with internal cushioning for rigid protection.
- Documents or photos that must stay flat. Use a Do Not Bend envelope that prevents bending or creasing due to pre-printed warning notices.
- A recyclable option. These are a laminated plastic bag; for an all-paper option choose AirPro green.
