This week, The Packaging Doctor is here to help a client protect their exquisite handmade vases!
Dear Doctor,
We craft and sell high-end handmade vases both in-store and online. Given how fragile these items are, we simply cannot afford for them to break during shipping or handling. Our reputation depends on delivering flawless products to our customers. Could you recommend the best packing materials to keep these vases safe?
Thank you for your guidance!
Sincerely,
Holly
Hi Holly,
Thanks for reaching out! Protecting delicate items like your vases is one of the most common requests we receive at The Packaging Doctor.
For such fragile goods, it's crucial to avoid anything abrasive that might cause damage. Since these vases are valuable, I highly recommend using Instapak Quick RT foam cushioning. This foam forms a snug mold around your product, offering excellent protection without scratching its surface. Pair this with a double-wall cardboard box for extra security.
Here’s how it works: Activate the Instapak system by pressing the designated areas on the foam pouch. This triggers a chemical reaction that inflates the pouch into a custom-shaped cushion tailored to your vase. Once it sets, the foam cradles the vase securely. Then, place the wrapped vase inside a double-wall box. These boxes provide superior protection because they're made from two layers of corrugated cardboard, which helps absorb impacts during transit.
To add another layer of precaution, consider using Kite's fragile handling labels. Options include "Fragile," "Handle with Care," or "Glass with Care." These labels ensure that anyone handling the package knows to exercise caution. They also feature strong adhesives that stick firmly throughout shipping, ensuring your customers receive their vases intact.
In my experience, this combination of Instapak foam and double-wall boxes is ideal for safeguarding your beautiful vases. It gives both you and your customers peace of mind. If you'd like more tips or have other questions, feel free to check out our website for demo videos, or reach out directly to our support team.
Best regards,
The Packaging Doctor
