Overview of Key Segments

Sales of Cushioned Mailers Contribute a Fortune

The sale of cushioned mailers has been on an upswing since the past years and is expected to gain momentum going forward. Cushioned mailers include an extra protective layer that is made of bubble wrap or foam. This additional layer provides extra protection to fragile goods thus preventing external damage during loading and transportation. Cushioned mailers are also called as padded mailers owing to the additional internal plastic padding along with an external layer of paper or plastic. This gives extra stability to the package while providing a cushioning effect against sharp edges, protection against external liquid exposure and other external factors during shipping.

Furthermore, various properties of cushioned mailers such as light weight, high durability, and high resistance to moisture have fuelled their use in packaging of goods such as electronic components, jewellery, and stationeries. In addition, they are a cheaper packaging solution and cost-efficient as they contribute toward huge cost savings by avoiding the need to pay for additional layer of bubble or foam. In this backdrop, increasing use of cushioned mailers is expected to largely contribute towards the revenue growth of the mailer packaging market on the global front.

Our Research Methodology

Considering the volatility of business today, traditional approaches to strategizing a game plan can be unfruitful if not detrimental. True ambiguity is no way to determine a forecast. A myriad of predetermined factors must be accounted for such as the degree of risk involved, the magnitude of circumstances, as well as conditions or consequences that are not known or unpredictable. To circumvent binary views that cast uncertainty, the application of market research intelligence to strategically posture, move, and enable actionable outcomes is necessary.
