Damage prevention is a recurring theme in the clinic, and rightfully so. It’s one of the main reasons why packaging exists. On the market, there are countless packaging options tailored to specific products—like mug boxes for cups or anti-static bags for electronic parts. These solutions aim to simplify logistics for businesses.

However, when it comes to uniquely shaped or delicate items, finding the right packaging can be challenging, especially when off-the-shelf solutions don’t exist for your particular product.

Today, we’re helping an Astro Turf manufacturer whose floral-infused turf keeps getting damaged during shipping. Let’s dive into how we resolved the issue and ensured their business could keep growing.

 

Dear Doctor,

I run a business producing Astro Turf, and recently launched a new range featuring beautiful wildflowers. But I’m really struggling! My couriers keep damaging the flowers, and it’s costing me both time and money. I’m worried I might have to stop offering this line entirely. Do you have any packaging recommendations that could solve this problem?

Thank you very much,
Janette

 

Dear Janette,

Thank you for reaching out to us today. We understand how crucial it is to preserve the natural charm of your floral turf while ensuring safe delivery. Here’s what we recommend to prevent further damage.

The best way to protect the delicate flowers is by using large bubble wrap. This type of packaging is ideal for fragile goods because its larger bubbles provide excellent cushioning without flattening the flowers. You can easily cut it to size and wrap it snugly around your Astro Turf before sealing it with tape. Once wrapped, the flowers will be protected yet still retain their natural form, making them ready for transport.

For additional security, consider adding lay-flat polythene tubing to your packaging process. Our heavy-duty tubing is available in rolls and is perfect for creating custom-sized bags. It’s made from 125-micron polythene, making it strong enough for heavier items such as carpets and rugs—perfect for your Astro Turf.

To use, select a width between 20 inches and 48 inches depending on your order size, then slide the tubing over the turf, trim it to the desired length, and seal both ends with a heavy-duty heat sealer. Your package is now secure and ready to ship!

We hope these suggestions help resolve your concerns. If you have any more questions or need further assistance, feel free to reach out to us directly on Twitter @kitepackaging or via email.

Best regards,
The Packaging Doctor
