Bubble Wrap

Wow! Now That’s a Great Bubble Wrap Alternative!

If you're looking for the best bubble wrap alternative, just say WOW - as in Frank Lowe's WOW Pads. Small and mighty, WOW Pads are uniquely engineered to pack, take a punch, and whatever else the shipping and transportation journey has to offer. 

And particularly, Frank Lowe's WOW Pads are proven to deliver exceptional performance and benefits where bubble wrap has proven to be disadvantageous.

Let's take a look at how Frank Lowe's WOW Pads are poised to upset the $3.5 billion bubble wrap industry. 

Save Money on Shipping with WOW Pads

To date, we've helped customers across several industries reduce shipping damages and save money because of the versatility of WOW Pads. Because most shipping fees are directly related to the weight and size of the package, WOW Pads can also help lower shipping costs. Excellent for finished metal products, fragile glass products, paint-coated products, mirrors, and much more; WOW Pads are proving to be a highly-effective, cost-saving solution.

WOW Pads Protect in More Ways than One

Whether you're shipping metal finishing products or anything else, WOW Pads are proven to be the more reliable and robust solution. WOW Pads are uniquely engineered to:

  • Reduce product slippage
  • Dampen impacts and vibrations
  • Absorb multiple bumps and shocks
  • Work to reduce and minimize friction that can cause damage
  • Help prevent rattling during transportation
  • Safely separate sheets of glass, finished metal, or other products
  • Consistently demonstrate outstanding recoil and compression.
  • Stabilize your products throughout shipping, transportation, and storage

Most importantly, WOW Pads will offer you a superior peace of mind knowing your products will arrive at the final destination in the same excellent form they left your facility. 

WOW Pads Are the EcoFriendly Bubble Wrap Alternative 

One of the biggest problems with bubble wrap is the product's biodegradability or lack thereof. Until the year 2008, bubble wrap was manufactured with plastic polymer film, which can take hundreds of years to disintegrate and is considered to be ecologically toxic. 

As the best alternative packing material, WOW Pads were created with making the minimal environmental impact in mind. As a result, WOW Pads are made with Neo-Rebond recycled material right here in the U.S. With Neo-Rebond WOW Pads, substantially less material is utilized in the manufacturing process than what would be used in the creation of bubble wrap. 

Wow...Create up to 30 Times More Jobs

In addition to reducing your overall environmental impact, WOW Pads support the creation of new American jobs. WOW Pads are manufactured through the recycling and reusing process, and most estimates suggest: 

  • Recycling creates at least 9 times more jobs than the traditional waste management process.
  • Reusing creates as many as 30 times more jobs than the traditional waste management process.

WOW Pads Can Be Customized to Protect Your Product

When it comes to creating the best protective packaging, there are no one-size-fits-all solutions. It's best to customize the packing solution based on the weight and size of your product. And as the best bubble wrap alternative, WOW Pads offer the ultimate in customization capabilities. 

For starters, the team at Frank Lowe will work closely with you to guide you to the best thickness for your specific application. You simply tell us about the product being shipped and we'll guide you to the best shape and thickness. 

We can then die cut WOW Pads to best meet your application needs, provide the material on a roll, or provide it on sheets. Our WOW Pads are available in an endless range of sizes including 1/8", 1/4”, 3/8” and 1/2” thickness from 3/4” squares to Sheet Sizes!. 

The Most Easy-to-Apply Alternative Packing Material

Many of our customers have reported how much time and money our WOW Pads have resulted in. If you're using bubble wrap as a packaging solution, the amount of time it takes your employees to wrap several revolutions of the material around your product can quickly add up. However, WOW Pads are uniquely engineered to be easy to apply and take a fraction of the time bubble wrap takes. 

WOW Shipping Pads feature a laminated pressure sensitive adhesive and a protective backing that creates a simple peel-and-stick application method. So when you're ready to apply, you don't need any additional tape or adhesives — simply peel the protective backing off and apply it to your product. Best of all, when you remove the pad from your product, our special adhesive will leave no damage or residue, working similar to a super-strength Post-It Note.

The Bubble Wrap Alternative that Saves Precious Warehouse Space

The very feature that has made bubble wrap a key packaging solution is also one of its disadvantages - it's massive bulk. Regularly stored around a cardboard spool, the bubble wrap's plastic air bubbles can cause serious storage problems and take up valuable warehouse floor space. 

This means instead of storing product — you could be resigned to store spools upon spools of bubble wrap. However, WOW Pads are slim, trim, and designed to take up exponentially less storage space. By using WOW Pads, you can save space and store more profit-driving product instead of plastic bubbles filled with air.
