Kraft Padded Mailers
Kraft padded mailers use a paper exterior and fiber padding for compatible books, documents, media, samples and small parts. They add a protective layer without the structure of a corrugated box. Because closure features can differ among products, choose the mailer by outside dimensions, product thickness, padding needs and the exact closure instructions. Stated mailer dimensions are outside dimensions, so usable space decreases as product thickness increases. Measure the item at its widest, longest and thickest points, including inner wrapping. Load it without forcing seams, folding rigid contents or placing the product in the closure area. For an integrated adhesive closure, compare kraft self-seal padded mailers. When bending, crushing or edge impact is the primary risk, a rigid flat mailer or corrugated box may be more appropriate than a flexible padded envelope. Fiber padding helps reduce surface contact and routine handling effects, but it does not isolate every fragile product from impact. Cover sharp corners, keep heavy items from stressing the seams and verify that the product cannot move enough to strike the ends. Check the exact closure design before packing. Do not assume every kraft padded mailer has the same adhesive, reclosability or tamper features. Close the exact product as directed and add retention only when compatible with the paper exterior. Test representative shipments and provide separate moisture protection when the contents or route require it. No. Treat them as outside dimensions and allow extra room for product thickness. It adds a flexible protective layer but does not replace a rigid package for every product. No. Verify the closure on the exact product rather than assuming one method. Only when seams, corners, movement and the distribution risk are properly controlled.
