Protective Wrap

Browse Protective Wrap by Type

Bubble Wrap

A reliable, lightweight cushioning material for wrapping fragile or delicate items before posting. Our bubble wrap rolls are available in a choice of widths (300mm, 500mm and 750mm) and are easy to cut to size. Ideal for e-commerce sellers, office despatch teams and anyone shipping breakable products.

Honeycomb Wrap

A 100% recyclable and biodegradable alternative to bubble wrap. Made from Kraft paper, honeycomb wrap expands into a flexible, cushioned lattice that clings to itself without the need for tape. It stores flat on a roll, taking up far less space than bubble wrap, and is quick to tear off by hand.

Pallet Wrap

Strong, stretchy clear film for securing boxes and goods onto pallets. Pallet wrap keeps loads contained during warehouse handling and transit, and protects against dirt, moisture and surface damage. It can be applied by hand or with a dispenser for faster, more consistent wrapping.

Choosing the Right Protective Wrap

The best type of wrap depends on what you are shipping and how it will be handled. Each product in the range serves a different purpose, so it is worth understanding where each one works well before you order.

Bubble Wrap is the go-to choice for cushioning individual items. It absorbs impacts and prevents scratches, making it a practical option for fragile goods such as glassware, ceramics, electronics and ornaments. For smaller e-commerce businesses that post a handful of parcels each day, a single roll of bubble wrap can go a long way.

Honeycomb Wrap offers similar cushioning to bubble wrap but without the plastic. Its Kraft paper construction makes it fully recyclable and biodegradable, which is a meaningful consideration if your business is working to reduce single-use plastic in its supply chain. The honeycomb cells expand to wrap around awkward shapes and hold themselves in place, so there is no need for extra tape. It also stores flat, which frees up space in your despatch area.

Pallet Wrap is designed for a different job entirely. Rather than cushioning individual products, it secures full loads onto pallets, so they stay stable during warehouse movement, loading and delivery. The clear film allows easy identification of contents and labels and works effectively even in cold store environments.

Sustainable Protective Wrapping Options

Reducing plastic packaging is a growing priority for many UK businesses, whether driven by customer expectations, environmental policy or the Plastic Packaging Tax. Honeycomb wrap is a strong option here. It is made from renewable Kraft paper, is plastic-free, and can be recycled alongside standard household paper and cardboard. For businesses that previously relied on bubble wrap, switching to honeycomb wrap can be a straightforward way to reduce plastic use without compromising on protection.

Pallet wrap is recyclable too, though it does need to be collected separately from paper and card. If your business generates a significant amount of stretch film waste, it is worth checking with your waste management provider about LDPE film recycling.

Protective Wrap for Every Business Need

Whether you run a small online shop posting a few orders a day or manage a busy warehouse handling palletised loads, protective wrap plays a practical role in keeping your products safe and your operation running smoothly.

For e-commerce sellers, wrapping items individually in bubble wrap or honeycomb wrap before placing them in a postal box or mailing bag helps reduce the risk of transit damage and the cost of returns. For warehouse and logistics teams, pallet wrap is essential for load stability during storage and transport.

All of our protective wrap products are available in quantities suited to both low-volume and high-volume users, with price breaks on larger orders.
