Polyethylene Bubble wrap: Great for protection and stress relief
02 Jul 2010
Some
people wonder how sensitive products should be wrapped in the bubble
wrap product. Well first of all the bubbles should be INSIDE. By doing
it this way all of the surface sections are protected by several bubbles
at the same time. Not to mention, since the external plastic layer will
distribute the sharp impact on a group of bubbles simultaneously, and
also it protects the individual bubbles from unnecessary breaking.
Polyethylene bubble wrap can come in various sizes. It can range from 1/4 inch (6 millimeters) in diameter, to an inch (26 millimeters) or more, to provide added levels of shock absorption during transportation. In addition to the degree of protection available from the size of the air bubbles in the plastic, the bubble wrap itself can offer some forms of protection for the object in question. Atlantic Poly also offers anti-static type of bubble wrap. So when shipping those sensitive electronic parts and components, an anti-static bubble wrap dissipates a static charge, thereby protecting the sensitive electronic chips from static which can damage them.
And who cannot deny the recognizable "popping" sound bubble wrap makes when compressed and punctured? According to many stress relief programs and sites, bubble wrap is one of the leading causes to reduce stress. Acknowledging this alternative use, some websites provide a "virtual bubble wrap" program which displays a sheet of bubble wrap that users may "pop" by clicking on the bubbles. So here at Atlantic Poly, Inc. our bubble wrap protects in so many ways.
