The Advantages of Packaging and Shipping with Static Shielding Bags

September 10, 2008

Looking for an extremely cost-effective way to protect your electronic merchandise while taking orders, packaging and shipping? Whether you’re shipping your electronic products to your customers or selling them in your brick-and-mortar store, you’ll want to use the static shielding bags for packaging and shipping at PackagingSupplies.com. These products are vital packaging and shipping casing for all ESDS (ElectroStatic Discharge Sensitive) electronic products.

 

What are ESDS products for packaging and shipping? These are items that are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. That just means that they’re sensitive to charges that can spark when two items with different electrostatic potential come into direct contact with one another. In other words, it’s similar to the static shock one may get after walking across a nylon-carpeted floor and then touching metal.

 

Packaging and shipping items like microchips are sensitive to electrostatic discharges. Over the years, microchips have become increasingly complex and efficient; they only require a small amount of electricity to run, which makes packaging and shipping them more difficult. They’re sensitive to the static electricity produced by electrostatic discharges. Packaging and shipping ElectroStatic Discharge Sensitive bags keeps these microchips safe from potentially dangerous shocks that may occur if the microchip comes into contact with other charged items.

 

At PackagingSupplies.com you can get packaging and shipping products that are either open-ended static shielding bags or sealable Ziploc-style bags. These packaging and shipping bags have 4-layer construction and are sturdy enough to handle even the most heavy-duty electronic equipment.

Take Advantage of Cheap Shipping Supplies with Dunnage Bags

September 5, 2008

Dunnage bags are cheap shipping supplies that serve as inflatable buffers for very large boxes or stacks of boxes. They’re used to restrict movement of large packages or large groups of packages in trucks, railcars or ships. As some of the best options for cheap shipping supplies, dunnage bags will help reduce both damage incurred while shipping as well as shipping cost.

 

The most common cause of shipping damage is boxes falling or moving while in transit. The load stabilizing ability of our large dunnage bags means that these lightweight and cheap shipping supplies are able to provide an inexpensive shipping solution for a large amount of boxes. These rigid bags will give you peace of mind when sending valuable materials. These cheap shipping supplies are made of several layers of an extremely strong poly blend. At PackagingSupplies.com, you can order dunnage bags to suit whatever shipping needs you may have. Our available dunnage bags come in 2 ply to the extremely sturdy 8 ply. These cheap shipping supplies are rugged, reliable and easy to inflate. The dunnage bags at PackagingSupplies.com are the perfect way to protect your shipping materials, no matter how fragile or heavy they may be.

 

Dunnage bags beat traditional wood bracing and other cheap shipping supplies because they’re both less expensive and easier to set up. With dunnage bags, there’s nothing to build, nothing to nail, nothing to construct and nothing to tear down. All you need to do is inflate and place these lightweight cheap shipping supplies between boxes or pallets and you’ve got a sturdy divider that’s suitable for most shipping jobs. They also take up less storage space than wood bracing and require no special storage requirements either—simply deflate them and put them away.

 

To determine the available bag size that’s right for you, first measure the void between boxes that you need to fill.  The width of the dunnage bag should be three times the width of the space you need to fill. So if you have an 8” gap, then we recommend our 24” bags. If you have a 16” gap, then you should go with the 48” bags. These cheap shipping supplies can be inflated with any kind of inflating tool, like an air compressor or an air hose.
