Common buyer questions
What's the difference between direct thermal and thermal transfer labels?
Direct thermal prints with heat alone (no ribbon) and can fade; thermal transfer uses a ribbon for a durable, long-lasting print.
What packaging do I need for ecommerce orders?
A box or mailing bag sized to the product, void fill or bubble wrap so nothing moves, plus tape and a courier label. Right-sizing keeps postage and damage down.
Which boxes fit Royal Mail Large Letter?
Boxes within 353 × 250 × 25mm post as a Large Letter. Our PiP postal boxes are cut to sit inside those limits so you pay the cheaper rate.
What is the best void fill for fragile items?
Pair cushioning (bubble wrap) around the item with void fill (kraft paper or air cushions) to stop movement. Fill any gap larger than about 3cm.
