Bubble Wrap® was invented in 1957 and has become a popular packaging material. It comes in different sizes and colors, and is also used for stress relief. It is water-resistant and can be purchased in rolls, bags, and shipping envelopes. Bubble Wrap® Appreciation Day is on January 26th.

Since the invention of Bubble Wrap®, it has not only been used as a packaging material, but has developed into a phenomenon. Marc Chavannes and Alfred W. Fielding invented Bubble Wrap® in 1957. They also co-founded Sealed Air Corporation in 1960, of which Bubble Wrap® is a registered trademark. They also produce other packing materials.
Bubble Wrap® comes in various shapes and sizes. Its general design is a sheet of plastic with evenly spaced air bubbles across its surface. While each sheet contains bubbles of the same size, you can find Bubble Wrap® that comes with bubbles of different sizes, from small to quite large. It can fit inside any container and wrap around any object that needs protection.

Many people love to pop Bubble Wrap®. Some people even consider it a stress reliever. While some may prefer real Bubble Wrap®, there are also several sites where you can virtually pop bubbles. It’s a much cheaper and greener way to get the solution that pops the bubbles.

Bubble Wrap® is excellent for wrapping as it is not only cushiony, but is also water resistant. It can keep dirt and dust out of your items and is relatively cheap to purchase. You can find rolls of the product, including small rolls and extra large rolls, so you have enough for your needs whether you’re moving, shipping, or just packing items temporarily. There are also bubble wrap bags that can completely wrap your fragile items.

When people think of Bubble Wrap®, they can automatically think of the clear color. Over the years, several colors have come onto the market including red, yellow and green. You won’t find the various colors in every office supply store, but you can find them in specialty stores and online.

In addition to rolls and bags of Bubble Wrap®, there are also shipping envelopes padded inside with bubbles. They are made to hold smaller items, such as CDs or books, which can get damaged in the shipping process. Many people usually think of manila bubble mailers, but you can also find them in various colors and patterns that are appropriate for any occasion.

Whether you use Bubble Wrap® for packaging or for popping, it’s an easily accessible product for purchase online, at any office supply store, and various other stores. There is also a Bubble Wrap® Appreciation Day, which takes place on January 26th.
