Custom Bubble Mailers
Padded bubble mailers that guard small items in transit, printed with your brand.
A bubble mailer is the cheapest way to post a small item without it arriving dented. The bubble lining takes the knocks a padded envelope was invented for, and the self-seal strip closes it without tape.
- Sizes from #000 (4×8 in) up to #5 (10.5×16 in) for most small goods
- Peel-and-seal adhesive strip, so it closes in one press
- Tear-resistant poly or recyclable kraft outer
- Full-color print on the face, logo to full wrap
Print the outside and the mailer earns its keep twice: it protects the product and it carries your brand through the customer's mailbox.
“Mailers arrived in nine days with the inside print exactly as proofed. Our unboxing videos finally look like the brands we admire.”
“Proof in my inbox the next morning, boxes on my dock in twelve days, and a rep who answers on the first ring. That is the entire review.”
When a bubble mailer beats a box
For anything small and semi-fragile, a jar of cream, a phone case, a paperback, a bubble mailer ships cheaper than a box and protects better than a flat envelope. The bubble lining absorbs the drops and squeezes a parcel takes on its way through sorting.
It also weighs almost nothing, which keeps postage in the letter or light-parcel band instead of pushing an order into a pricier tier.
Picking the size
Bubble mailers run on a number scale, from #000 at 4×8 inches up to #7 and beyond. The rule is snug, not tight: the item should sit flat with the bubble able to wrap it, but not swim around inside. A #0 (6×10 in) suits jewelry and cosmetics; a #2 (8.5×12 in) fits most books and boxed small goods.
Order a size up from the product's flat dimensions to leave room for the padding to do its job.
Print earns the cost back
A plain grey mailer does one job. A printed one does two, since it lands in a mailbox with your name on it. Kraft outers take a one or two-color logo for a natural look; poly outers hold full-color art. For heavier or rigid items, a die cut mailer box gives more structure than padding alone.
FAQ
Are bubble mailers recyclable?
The kraft-outer versions with paper bubble lining are curbside recyclable. All-poly mailers need store drop-off film recycling, so pick the kraft build if that matters to your brand.
What size do I need?
Measure the item flat and add an inch or two each way for the padding. A #0 fits small cosmetics; a #2 fits most books. Tell us the product and we match it.
Can I print my logo?
Yes, one or two colors on kraft, or full-color on poly. Sending to Amazon? Pair these with Amazon FBA labels printed to spec. Get a quote.
