The advantages of air cushions as void fill

Here's some simple facts and thoughts when it comes to air cushions for void filling which should put them as your number one void fill option.

Price of void fill

The price per litre filled with air pillows is far less than another packaging option, be paper, void fill peanuts or bubblewrap, do the calculations and testing yourself, I guarantee you air pillows come out on top every time.

Storage space of other void fill options

Air pillows are by far the most efficient at storage space when not been used, while paper isn’t too far behind it when in reams or rolls, air pillows are undeniably the most efficient when it comes to eating up your warehouse space.

Delivery cost of larger void fills

Now this might not matter to those in the city’s s who can get bags of peanuts or bubblewrap delivered cheaply, but for country customers or those only needing small amount of bubblewrap or biofill, you will be able to get air pillows delivered to you cheaper. Because of their size and weight when shipping.

Warehouse efficiency

If you’re using bubblewrap or peanuts at the moment, I want you to think about how much time your staff spend unloading bags, moving bags, filling up bins or hoppers and moving those bags around, when air pillows can sit near the amchine and be filled on demand.

Reducing your shipment weight

As it stands air pillows are the lightest void fill solution, that means that when you ship an item you will pay less in delivery costs.
