Bubble Wrap, also known as bubble roll or bubble pack, is an impact packaging solution to ensure that fragile products are kept damage-free from impact during transportation. Easy to use with minimal training, the bubble roll is a cost-effective and reusable packaging wrapped around the product with the air-filled bubble pack facing the inside to ensure that products remain in place.
Bubble Wraps are made from small beads of resin, similar to the shape of rice or pea gravels. These resins are usually made in polyethene material which is then poured into an Extruder with a high temperature of 450 °C to 500 °C, essential for converting the resin into films. The films then pass through a series of rollers to achieve the desired thickness, then through a cylinder designed with numerous tiny denting holes to give the film its “bubble” shape.

During the transportation of electronic products using regular plastic bubble wraps, a build of static occurs, which causes static shocks known as electrostatic discharge (ESD) to the mentioned products. However, with the Anti-Static Bubble Roll, we can prevent damage caused by ESD to ensure that products are safe. The Anti-Static Bubble Wrap is ideal for electronic gadgets such as laptops, smartphones, and heavy machinery. It also comes in pink to allow easy identification.
Similar to the standard bubble pack, the Self-Adhesive Bubble Roll comes with an additional feature, the adhesive layer, to allow the bubble wrap to remain intact on products with sensitive surfaces such as glass and flat-screen TVs.
