Introducing a new product – honeycomb packing paper sheets!

Every entrepreneur selling via mail order knows how costly transport damage to goods can be. Packaging issues, unstable loads and difficult road conditions are the main reasons why 1 to 11 percent of parcels reach recipients damaged.

To avoid damage, it’s worth choosing modern protective materials such as honeycomb paper. Its durable and flexible structure effectively protects parcels. In addition, it’s an eco-friendly solution that is gaining popularity in modern logistics.

Damage in transit

A common issue in e-commerce and the logistics that supports it is shipment damage during transport. Depending on the source, the parcel damage rate ranges from 1 to 11 percent. Research by Conner Industries indicates that as many as 11 percent of shipments arriving at distribution centers are damaged in some way. In e-commerce, these indicators are lower, often around about 1–2 percent, but they can increase to 10 percent for more sensitive products such as electronics or glass.

Product damage most often results from human error: improper packing and poor handling of parcels in sorting facilities and by couriers. Transport conditions also affect the condition of a shipment. Some roads can be full of potholes and bumps, so the load can shift or fall at any moment in a van or truck. Sometimes even hard braking is enough for a heavier parcel to hit a lighter one.

Modern technologies provide a solution, such as honeycomb-style packing paper. This paper is exceptionally durable and flexible, so it absorbs shocks and prevents products from moving inside the parcel. The characteristic structure acts like a shock absorber, reducing the risk of damage during impacts and drops. Additionally, this paper is very lightweight, so it won’t significantly increase the weight.

What makes honeycomb paper sheets stand out?

Our sheet papers stand out thanks to several useful features that help streamline processes in your company or even take it to a new, higher level:

Flexibility: The slit paper has a unique honeycomb structure, which makes it extremely flexible and able to wrap any item effectively. A 38x25 cm sheet is useful for wrapping parcels with unusual shapes.

Eco-friendliness: If you want your company to follow modern trends, there is no better choice than Bublaki. The honeycomb sheets are made from biodegradable materials suitable for recycling.

Versatility: Packing paper sheets are available in different colors: white, brown, black and red. Neutral colors like white or black will reflect your company’s professionalism. Red, on the other hand, is useful when we want to add character to parcels and stand out from the competition.

Reusable: Honeycomb-style paper is intended for repeated use thanks to durable fibers. This means significant financial savings for any shipping business, as well as the ability to reduce waste, for which disposal also has to be paid.

Durability: The sheets are made from slit paper with a basis weight of 80g. This fully secures products during transport, providing cushioning—useful when a parcel shifts in a van or accidentally falls during sorting.

An additional advantage of honeycomb sheets is that once removed from the packaging, they are ready to use immediately. No specialized machines or tools are needed to pack products quickly and efficiently before shipping them to customers.

What other honeycomb options?

Other types of honeycomb solutions are also available on our website.

Honeycomb paper roll works well for wrapping larger products that must be protected from damage during transport. Its downside is that you need to cut it yourself or cut smaller pieces from it, but at the same time you can wrap really large packages with it.

Meanwhile, packing paper in bag form is useful for securing specific products, including alcohol bottles, homemade preserves or glass tableware. The honeycomb can be stretched freely, so there’s no problem packing an item with a large diameter.

Summary

To sum up, paper with a honeycomb structure is a great solution for companies that want to ensure shipment safety and introduce more eco-friendly packing methods. Its durability, flexibility and versatility make it an ideal tool for protecting products from transport damage. Additionally, it helps reduce the amount of waste and the costs associated with its disposal.
