How Book Wraps Simplify Shipping Tile Samples
, by Nathan Calvert, 3 min reading time
Shipping tile samples is challenging due to their weight and fragility. Learn how book wraps simplify the process with secure fit, buffer edge protection, and fast, eco-friendly packaging options.
Wondering what is the best type of packaging to ship tiles in? Shipping tile samples can be a tricky task. Tiles are not only heavy, but they’re also fragile, easily chipping or breaking under pressure. Their weight also presents a risk when posted through a letterbox, as a heavy tile sample falling onto a hard floor could cause damage to both the tile and the customer’s property. Traditional packaging solutions often don’t provide the right level of protection for these specific challenges, leaving businesses with higher return rates and dissatisfied customers.
Why Book Wraps Are Perfect for Shipping Tile Samples
Book wraps offer an ideal solution for shipping tile samples by combining secure packaging, variable sizing, and excellent protective features.
Wrap-Around Design for Secure Fit Across Multiple Tile Sizes
One of the key features of book wraps is their adjustable wrap-around design, which allows for variable heights. This is especially beneficial when shipping a wide range of tile sample sizes. The wrap securely fits the tiles, minimising movement inside the package, which is crucial for preventing cracks, chips, and other damage during transit. Whether your tiles are thin or thick, small or large, book wraps provide a snug, secure fit that ensures safe delivery.
Edge Protection Prevents Damage to Tiles and Customer Floors
Heavy tile samples can easily damage both the tiles themselves and the customer’s floor if dropped. Book wraps are designed with buffer edges that absorb impacts, preventing the tiles from chipping or cracking during shipping. Additionally, the buffer edges protect the customer's floor from damage when the tile sample is posted through a letterbox and falls onto a hard surface. This added layer of protection is crucial for ensuring customer satisfaction and reducing the likelihood of costly replacements.
Peel-and-Seal with Hot Melt Glue for Strength and Convenience
Book wraps feature a peel-and-seal system with ultra-strong hot melt glue, which forms a solid, tight seal around the tile samples. This not only secures the package but also provides excellent protection from side impacts and bending during transit. With its easy-to-use design, packing tile samples in book wraps takes mere seconds, simplifying your fulfilment process and helping your business run more efficiently.
