Täyttöpussit

Täyttöpussit, meaning "filling bags" in Finnish, refers to a type of packaging material primarily used for cushioning and protecting items during shipping. These bags are typically made from durable plastic films, such as polyethylene, and are inflated with air. The air trapped within the bags creates a barrier that absorbs shock and prevents damage to the contents.

The primary function of täyttöpussit is to fill empty space within shipping boxes. This minimizes movement of the product inside, thus reducing the risk of breakage or scuffing. They are a lightweight alternative to traditional packing materials like packing peanuts or bubble wrap, contributing to lower shipping costs. Their versatility allows them to be used for a wide range of products, from electronics and glassware to delicate artwork and personal care items.

Täyttöpussit come in various shapes and sizes, including air pillows, air tubes, and custom-molded bags designed to fit specific product contours. They are often supplied uninflated and are filled with air using a specialized machine just before or during the packing process. This on-demand inflation system saves storage space and reduces material waste. Environmentally conscious options, such as bags made from recycled materials or those designed to be easily recyclable, are also becoming more prevalent in the market. The use of täyttöpussit has become a standard practice in e-commerce and logistics due to their effectiveness, efficiency, and cost-effectiveness.
