Expert Tips on Shipping Expensive Glass Bottles – The Packaging Doctor
Recently, we've been collaborating with several media partners to discuss holiday preparations for the upcoming Christmas season. Yes, you read that right—Christmas is just around the corner! Retailers big and small are already beginning their planning stages to prepare for the seasonal surge. During our research this week, we discovered that consumer spending in the UK skyrockets by an impressive 60% in December alone. As the economy continues to recover, this figure is likely to increase further.
One of the biggest areas of expenditure during this time is food and drink. People tend to splurge a bit more on indulgent treats when budgets are tight throughout the year, making Christmas the perfect opportunity to treat yourself. Whether it's a fine bottle of sherry to pair with your Christmas dinner or perhaps a luxurious bottle of champagne, many people look forward to adding a touch of elegance to their festive feasts. Today's case involves someone who runs a thriving business selling some of the rarest and most prestigious beverages in the world. But how exactly do they ensure their precious bottles arrive safely? Let me walk you through their approach!
Dear Doctor,
I’ve been collecting vintage ports, champagnes, and wines for quite some time now, and I recently inherited a massive collection from my late father. With so many bottles on hand, I decided to start selling them individually online after successfully selling a few at a local wine fair. Each bottle starts at £100, so protecting them during transit is absolutely crucial. I’m looking for a foolproof method to keep these delicate glass containers intact while shipping them directly to buyers. Do you have any suggestions?
Looking forward to hearing from you soon,
Colin
Hello Colin,
Thank you for reaching out with your query—I have just the solution for you!
I highly recommend trying out our Air Shock system. This innovative packaging solution utilizes tough, inflatable cushions to safeguard your valuable items during shipment. Lightweight yet robust, it's specifically designed to protect fragile goods like bottles and ornaments while being shipped via couriers.
Some key advantages of using Air Shock include its lightweight nature, space efficiency, professional appearance, and ease of use. Simply place your cherished bottles into one of our custom-designed pouches and inflate until they're snugly surrounded by a protective layer of air. These pouches provide exceptional cushioning and significantly reduce the risk of breakage, minimizing returns and ensuring your bottles arrive safely at their destination.
Additionally, the pouches come in multiple sizes to accommodate different quantities, whether you're sending a single bottle or an entire case. They even include outer boxes, eliminating the need to purchase additional packaging materials separately. This makes Air Shock the ideal choice for transporting high-value glassware like yours.
Wishing you successful shipments ahead!
Warm regards,
The Packaging Doctor
