To protect fragile, sensitive or irreplaceable items for shipping, wrap them in bubble wrap, with the bubbles facing the product. Bubble wrap protects all surfaces of the item and the external plastic will distribute any impact amongst the packaging.

Polyethylene bubble wrap comes in many sizes. The range is 1/4 inch diameter, to one inch. The larger the bubbles, the higher level of shock absorption. But in addition to the shock absorption qualities of bubble pack, Atlantic Poly also offers anti-static bubble wrap for shipping sensitive electronic parts and equipment. Static can damage electronic chips. By using anti-static bubble wrap the static charge is removed.

Vapor barriers are typically defined as  a plastic or foil sheet used  for damp proofing that resists diffusion of moisture through the walls, ceiling and floors of buildings and of packaging. Building codes have classified vapor barriers as having a water vapor permeance of 1 perm or less. Vapor retarding materials are generally categorized as: Impermeable, semi-permeable,  or permeable.
