It is actually a plastic bag or pillow, inflated using an air cushion machine, usually provided by the manufacturer of these bags at the lowest or no cost price, depending on the amount of material you want to consume. The real advantage of this process is that it can be inflated on demand, so compared to other products such as pre-inflated foam packaging or loosely filled products such as foam peanuts, inbound transportation costs, and carbon footprint are minimal. Inflatable products take up little space in your warehouse or busy packing station. In addition, compared with most paper products, inflatable plastic packaging products are much cleaner, usually leaving paper scraps on the items to be transported.
One of the most important and overlooked green benefits of our inflatable products is their impressive reusability. This plastic is designed to keep air for a long time, in fact, we reuse the same inflatable product many times in a few months. Since they will eventually be reused and transported across the country, no one knows how long they will last, but I firmly believe this could be as long as a year or even longer.
