What is the Best Packaging for Shipping Picture Frames?

Shipping picture frames can be risky due to their fragile nature. Learn why book wrap mailers offer the best protection, ensuring your frames arrive intact while saving on shipping costs. Discover more about their features and benefits, and why they're a cost-effective, eco-friendly solution for your business.

When shipping picture frames, there’s always a risk of damage. The fragile nature of the glass, combined with the delicate structure of the frame itself, makes picture frames highly susceptible to breakage during transit. Even minor impacts can lead to shattered glass, damaged corners or broken frames, resulting in customer dissatisfaction and costly returns. Shipping with inadequate packaging only exacerbates these issues, as many options fail to provide the protection needed against knocks, drops or bends.

Why Book Wraps Are Perfect for Picture Frames

Book wrap mailers provide an ideal solution thanks to their unique design and robust construction.

Wrap‑Around Design for Secure Fit and Minimal Movement

The wrap‑around design keeps your frames snugly in place. Adjustable height accommodates various frame sizes, ensuring minimal internal movement—a key factor in preventing glass breakage.

Built‑In Protection for Corners and Edges

Frames are most vulnerable at the corners. Book wraps feature buffer edges that cushion against dents and chips. Even if dropped or pushed through a letterbox onto a hard surface, your corners remain protected.

Peel‑and‑Seal with Hot Melt Glue for Strength and Security

A peel‑and‑seal closure, reinforced with ultra‑strong hot melt glue, creates a robust barrier against side impacts and bending. This secure seal keeps frames intact and prevents corner crushing during postal handling.

Additional Benefits of Using Book Wrap Mailers

Beyond superior protection, some book wrap sizes qualify for Royal Mail’s large letter tariff, helping to reduce shipping costs for smaller frames—an advantage for any e‑commerce business.
