Packaging Supplies for Ecommerce: Essential Materials for Secure Shipping
Are shipping headaches holding you back? For health and beauty, beverage, and lightweight consumer goods brands, packaging problems can quickly turn into customer satisfaction issues and increased costs.
Managing inventory, choosing the right materials, and quality control takes focus away from what matters most – growing your business. We handle the fulfillment headaches so you can focus on getting more orders.
E-commerce Packaging
Fulfillment starts with the right packaging materials. Each product type – from delicate cosmetics to bottled beverages – requires specific packaging to protect during transit and keep costs in check. Our experience with high-volume shippers helps brands make smart choices that scale.
Mailers and Envelopes
For lightweight consumer goods and small health and beauty products, choosing the right mailer is key to optimizing shipping costs and product safety. Poly mailers work for non-breakable items, bubble mailers for cosmetics, and small bottled products. Paper mailers for eco-friendly beauty brands.
Shipping Boxes and Cartons
Beverage brands and companies shipping multiple items need boxes that protect products from damage and keep costs down. Single wall boxes work for standard health and beauty products, and double wall boxes for heavier products like beverage multipacks.
Packing Tape and Adhesives
Growing brands know that sealing materials directly impact customer satisfaction. Our fulfillment team tests and stocks reliable options that balance cost and performance, water-activated tape for heavy shipments, and paper-based tapes for sustainable packaging choices.
Protective Packaging
Product protection impacts your bottom line, as damage in transit affects profitability and customer trust. Based on our experience, we help brands choose protective materials that fit their needs.
Our solutions include using air pillows to protect bottles and jars and minimize weight, bubble wrap to protect delicate cosmetics and glass containers, and paper void fill to support eco-friendly shipping.

E-commerce Packaging Challenges
Growing businesses face packaging challenges that impact profitability and customer satisfaction. Below are the most common obstacles brands face and how we at IWS address each one:
Cost Control
Material costs are a big part of fulfillment costs, especially for health and beauty brands with multiple product lines. Working with a fulfillment partner gives you access to better pricing through volume purchasing without needing ample storage space or capital investment.
For brands shipping more significant quantities, understanding flat rate pallet shipping options can help optimize costs while maintaining reliable delivery times.
