Whether you run a record store or just know an avid collector, sometimes it’s important to ship records across distances. The trick is that records are notoriously fragile, and you want to be sure that they survive the trip. The key to survival is to use LP mailers . They protect the records and make shipping easy. Of course, these products often come with questions, so you’ll find a few common questions and answers below. What Are LP Mailers Made Of? Typically, the mailers are made out of corrugated cardboard. At Cutting Edge Packaging Products, we make them specifically from 32 ECT corrugated cardboard. This designation ensures that they have the durability and integrity necessary for shipping. Yet, the cardboard is not hard enough to scratch the records, making them a very safe option. It is possible to find record mailers crafted with different types of cardboard. Far less common, you can also find mailers that are made from bubble-wrapped or otherwise protected envelopes.
