For those in the e-commerce business, especially those who sell or ship electronics items, it is well known that the wrong shipping supplies and containers can create a poor customer experience. No one, neither the shipper nor the receiver, wants to be in a situation where the product, such as a laptop, set of speakers, or camera system arrives damaged in the package.

Today’s customers won’t stand for shipping damages that could have easily been prevented had the right packaging materials been used. Packaging foam, in particular, is essential for use in the shipping of electronics. Not only does it effectively protect your products from bumps and tumbles that are common in the shipping process, but it also helps to create a professional element that can speak to the quality of your brand.

If customers order a product online, regardless of price point, they want it to arrive quickly and safely. If when that product finally arrives it is ‘dead on arrival,’ especially if it appears that care didn’t go into the actual packaging of the item, it will lead to an unhappy customer, and likely either a return or a reship which will add costs for the shipper, taking away from the bottom line.

The foam packaging products that are available today come in a wide array of materials which are perfect for those selling products online on eCommerce platforms such as eBay, Amazon, Shopify, etc. For additional information about packaging foam options and the benefits that it can provide your electronics business, contact Foam Factory.
