Moving Protection with Bubble Wrap
Bubble wrap, you know that stuff that comes inside packages to keep stuff from breaking. That stuff is great moving protection for your more fragile items. Bubble wrap is one of today’s most popular packing materials.
“Bubble wrap is an accidental discovery by two engineers, Alfred Fielding and Marc Chavannes, in 1957 that revolutionized the packaging industry. It is polyethylene resin or transparent plastic film. It uses evenly distributed air cushions, in the form of air bubbles trapped between two films of clear plastic to offer shock and vibration protection during transport. The bubbles vary in size depending on the size and fragility of the item. Generally, small bubble wrap is used for small items like electronics and glassware, while large bubble wrap is used for larger items like furniture.” Bubble Wrap and It’s Benefits, SuperPages.com
