Sectors
Industries we supply
Ten sectors, ten different problems. An apparel operation is solving for returns; a beauty brand is solving for a printed carton arriving unmarked; an electronics seller is solving for hard corners and static.
These pages are written around those problems rather than around the products, because a list of bags is not much help when the real question is how your category ships.
Clothing and apparel
Sizing across a varied range, and building returns into the packaging decision.

Why these are written by sector rather than by product
A list of bags is not much help when the real question is how your category ships. An apparel operation is solving for returns; a beauty brand is solving for a printed carton arriving unmarked; an electronics seller is solving for hard corners and static handling. Those are different problems that happen to be answered with the same raw material.
So each page starts from the problem, names the sectors that genuinely have it, and recommends five products with the reason each one belongs there. The recommendations differ between pages even where the products overlap, because the reason for choosing them differs.
- Written from the failure, not the catalogueEach page opens with what actually goes wrong in that category.
- Five recommendations, each with a reasonNot a full range dump. Five products and why they fit this sector.
- Sector-specific questions answeredThe FAQs on each page are the ones buyers in that category actually ask.
- No sector we cannot serve honestlyCategories that mostly ship in cartons do not get a page arguing otherwise.
Not listed here?
These are the sectors where poly mailers are genuinely the right packaging and where we have enough to say to justify a page. We have not written pages for categories that mostly ship in cartons, because a page recommending a flexible bag for rigid goods would be a page arguing against itself.
If your category is not here and you think a mailer suits it, describe what you ship and we will tell you honestly whether it does.
