FAQs / Additional Info
A selection of the most commonly asked questions regarding ecommerce packaging, order fulfillment, and more
What are polythene mailing bags used for?
Polythene mailing bags are ideal for shipping non-fragile items such as clothing, books, textiles and accessories. Their lightweight design reduces postage costs, while their flexibility allows them to accommodate various shapes and sizes. They can be paired with additional protective packaging, such as bubble wrap, to create a more impact-proof postal solution.
Are polythene mailing bags waterproof?
Yes, polythene mailing bags are naturally water-resistant due to their material. They help protect items from moisture and splashes, making them ideal for shipping in unpredictable weather conditions.
Can I reuse polythene mailing bags?
While these mailbags are primarily designed for single use, their construction often allows for reuse if they remain in good condition. This supports environmentally conscious practices by reducing waste and encouraging circularity.
What sizes of polythene mailing bags are available?
Our polythene mailing bags come in a wide range of sizes, from small mailer envelopes to large polythene mailing bags suitable for bulkier items. We provide detailed size guides to help you choose the perfect fit for your needs, or you can speak with our team for recommendations tailored to your needs.
Are coloured polythene mailing bags eco-friendly?
Although poly mailers are made from polythene, our entire range is derived from recycled materials. This means no new plastics have been used in their creation, offering a more eco-friendly solution. Their lightweight nature also helps reduce transportation emissions, as there is less energy and space required for shipping them.
What are the benefits of using polythene mailing bags over boxes?
Polythene mailing bags are lighter, more flexible and take up less storage space than boxes. They are also cost-effective, especially for non-fragile items, as they help lower shipping and handling costs.
The robust 40mm lip and a self-seal peel strip are integrated into the mailing bag itself, streamlining the packaging process and avoiding the need for additional sealing. This saves time and also provides a tamper-evident seal for an added layer of security.
