The release of the company's latest guide comes as damaged deliveries continue to affect UK retailers and consumers alike. Research commissioned by DS Smith found that nearly one in four UK consumers received a damaged item during recent delivery cycles, while a Sendcloud report found that almost 60% of shoppers would not return to a retailer after receiving a damaged parcel. For businesses shipping glass bottles, protective packaging plays a direct role in preventing costly replacements and maintaining customer confidence.
Globe Packaging explains that no single protective material is suitable for every shipment. Bottle size, weight, transport distance, and the level of handling expected during delivery can all influence which packaging provides the most effective protection.
The guide compares commonly used protective materials — including bubble wrap, foam bottle sleeves, corrugated bottle boxes, paper bubble wrap, and honeycomb paper bottle sleeves — and outlines where each option performs best. It also covers recyclable paper-based alternatives for businesses looking to reduce plastic packaging without compromising protection.
"Choosing the right protective packaging is only part of the process," a Globe Packaging spokesperson said. "How bottles are packed inside the carton has just as much influence on whether they arrive safely. Good wrapping, effective void fill, and limiting movement during transit all contribute to better outcomes."
Alongside material selection, the guide recommends wrapping bottles individually, filling space inside shipping cartons to prevent movement, and keeping bottles upright wherever practical. These measures help businesses reduce the risk of breakage while ensuring protective materials perform as intended throughout the delivery journey.
The guide forms part of Globe Packaging's broader effort to help UK businesses make informed packaging decisions, supported by its range of protective packaging products. The company supplies materials for businesses of all sizes, with same-day dispatch available and next-working-day delivery on qualifying mainland UK orders.
