FAQs
What are the exact internal dimensions?
The internal dimensions are the same as the external dimensions: 610mm x 700mm. The material itself takes up negligible space.
Are these envelopes suitable for very heavy items?
These envelopes are designed for flat and relatively lightweight items. For very heavy items, it is recommended to use a more robust packaging solution, potentially in conjunction with these envelopes as an outer layer.
Can I write on the envelopes?
Yes, most permanent markers or labels adhere well to the polythene surface for addressing and other information.
How many envelopes are in a pack?
Each pack contains 25 polythene envelopes.
Are these envelopes recyclable?
Polythene is generally recyclable, but local recycling guidelines vary. Please check with your local waste management services for specific instructions.
What is the primary benefit of these envelopes?
Their primary benefit is providing a strong, water-repellent, and tear-resistant barrier for large, flat items during shipping.
Troubleshooting
Envelope seal not secure
Ensure the sealing surface is clean and dry before applying pressure. Press firmly along the entire length of the seal.
Item does not fit
Verify the item's dimensions against the internal measurements (610mm x 700mm) before attempting to insert. Consider alternative packaging if the item is too large.
Envelope torn during shipping
While tear-resistant, extreme force can damage the material. For very sharp or heavy items, consider adding internal padding or a sturdier outer box.
