Gold vs White Airkraft—do they perform differently?

Performance is equivalent. Gold provides a traditional kraft look and hides scuffs; White offers a clean, premium finish with strong label and barcode contrast.

What distinguishes Jiffy Ocean Green from standard bubble mailers?

Ocean Green incorporates recycled content in the cushioning while maintaining a paper outer for label adhesion—ideal for brands prioritising sustainability.

Can bubble mailers replace boxes for fragile items?

They suit small, non-brittle items. For brittle or sharp-edged products, choose book wraps or cardboard boxes with appropriate internal cushioning.

Are bubble mailers recyclable?

Recycling guidance varies locally. Mixed paper/plastic mailers may require separation. For easier kerbside recycling, use paper-only board envelopes or paper mailing bags.

How do I select the right mailer code (A/000–K/7)?

Match internal dimensions to your packed product. Choose the smaller size for compressible items and the larger size for rigid boxed goods to avoid seam stress.

Do shipping labels adhere well to Jiffy bubble mailers?

Yes. Both kraft and white outers accept printed labels. Clean the surface before application for best adhesion and scanner readability.

How can I reduce transit damage when using bubble mailers?

Right-size the mailer, immobilise contents with inner wraps or trays, add a stiffener for flat items and seal firmly along the entire flap. Consider Jiffy Padded for denser loads.
