Are Polybag Mailers Ideal for eCommerce Packaging?
Polybag mailers are an ideal packaging for non-fragile items such as apparels, shoes, and books, among others. However, poly mailers are vulnerable to tearing or ripping, while being shipped to their destination. In many cases, they are not readable by scanning machine at the post office if filled improperly. The fragmented nature of the North America polybag mailers market explains a modest CAGR of 3.4% during the assessment period. Hence, manufacturers are mainly focusing on the development of waterproof and lightweight polybag mailers for packaging of fabrics, arts & prints, and accessories.
Poly mailers are increasingly replacing corrugated boxes, owing to their cost effectiveness and less space occupancy attributes.

Hence, plastic accounts for a large share as a raw material when making protective packaging solutions such as bubble mailers. Stringent government regulations on plastic usage and increase in awareness about environmental sustainability are expected to inhibit the adoption of plastic packaging in the near future. Therefore, bioplastic is considered as an alternative, which aims to replace petroleum-based plastic with natural byproducts, improving recyclability and sustainability.
- Manufacturers’ choice of material will affect the consumer viewpoint for padded mailers in the upcoming years. Various leading players in the padded mailer market are introducing recyclable bubble sheets to maintain their foothold in the market. Recyclable grade polyethylene can be used in order to reduce the environmental impact of bubble wrap.

Availability of Alternatives Restraining Growth of Market
- Decreasing preference for plastic products and inclination of consumers toward sustainable product manufacturing may hamper the growth of the North America polybag market over the next 10 years.
