Bubble Wrap By The Truckload

By Jake Kirk • Thursday 30th April 2015

One of our most popular products is bubble wrap. This versatile packaging material is great for so many things, and has been a reliable protective product for years.

A huge number of companies in the UK will use bubble wrap in some way, shape, or form. From smaller retailers looking to protect their products in transit, to large fulfilment houses using bubble wrap as an essential. It is one of the most versatile packaging products in the world and is used in huge volumes by some companies.

Our Bubble Wrap Range

If you enter the Kite Packaging Warehouse at our site in Coventry (where all online orders are processed), you will see our bubble aisles – lines and lines of bubble wrap, ready to be shipped out to all our wonderful customers.

To make things simple we stock two different kinds of bubble wrap, our own brand Kite bubble wrap (an economical option) and Jiffy branded, in both small bubble and large bubble.

Remember, if you’re new to packaging, large and small does not relate to the size of the rolls! It is the size of the ‘bubbles’ – large being best for heavy and bulky items, as well as void fill, and small best for protecting items likely to be damaged.

Large Orders

You can choose from a range of bubble wrap on our website to suit your operation, and place your order as you would for any product on the website.

However, if you are a large user we have good news – our full and half truck load offering on bubble wrap is now even more economical! All of our Kite Economy bubble wrap SKU’s are available as half and full truck loads, giving you more rolls per load and the best prices.

What’s more, our handy buying tool makes it even easier to buy a ‘Mixed Truck’ of product, allowing you to fill a truck with various SKU’s. Not only is this a quick an easy way of getting all your bubble ordered, but it is also far more economical than placing several separate orders – giving you our cheapest bubble wrap at the lowest price break.

How To Use

Our wonderful web team have designed a nifty little tool that helps you order bubble by the truckload more easily. As you add your products you will see that the cartoon truck will fill up, and once it has reached half a truck you can ‘add to basket’ or continue to a full truck.

The tool will not allow you to add your products to the basket if you are under or over a half or full truck. If you want to order less than half a truck go back to the bubble wrap page and order the correct number of rolls as you would any other Kite product.

Stay Tuned: We'll be introducing even more sizes of bubble to the Mixed Truck tool very soon, as always we will keep you posted on the blog!
