This week, The Packaging Doctor received a query from Kevin, who runs a business buying and selling car parts. While he’s had success using bubble wrap for smaller components, he’s found that car bumpers present a unique challenge due to their size and shape. Here’s how we helped him find the right solution.

Kevin explained that car bumpers are precision-engineered to match specific vehicle models, making their edges particularly fragile. If not adequately protected, these bumpers could easily sustain damage during transport. He was seeking advice on what additional materials might offer better protection than bubble wrap alone.

After reviewing his situation, we recommended starting with Nomafoam O-profile edge protection. These foam strips come in 2-meter lengths and feature a split design that allows them to slide snugly over the edges of the bumper. Their flexible nature means they can adapt to various bumper sizes, ensuring consistent coverage. Plus, their closed-cell foam construction provides excellent shock absorption, keeping the bumper safe throughout transit.

Once the edges are secured, we suggested wrapping the entire bumper in a heavy-duty polythene furniture cover. These covers are designed to shield furniture from dust, moisture, and scratches—qualities that translate perfectly to protecting car bumpers during shipping and storage. They’re durable enough to withstand rough handling while maintaining the bumper's pristine condition.

For added security, Kevin could seal the polythene covers using custom-printed adhesive tape. By choosing a design featuring his company logo or branding message, he’d not only keep the package tidy but also reinforce his brand identity with every delivery. Custom tapes are available in multiple colors and materials (polypropylene or PVC), allowing him to tailor the appearance to suit his preferences.

We believe this combination of Nomafoam edge guards, polythene covers, and branded tape will provide optimal protection for Kevin’s car bumpers. However, if he encounters similar issues with other items or has further questions about packaging solutions, he’s always welcome to reach out to our team of experts.

Biodegradable T Shirt Bags

The Biodegradable T Shirt Bags are made of fully biodegradable compostable material. It is non-traditional plastic material and does not contain any harmful substances. Our biodegradable T Shirt bags can be completely biodegraded under composting conditions for 90 days. After use, the compostable plastic bags can be composted together with the packaged materials (kitchen waste, garbage, fallen leaves, etc.). The biodegradable T Shirt bags can be decomposed into CO2 and water by bacteria in the composting environment, and the bacteria die after the end of the degradation process and become organic fertilizer.
